Analyzing Color Analysis

Did you know that for each individual, there are particular colors that would "empower" or complement their looks and features?  It was realized a few decades ago that certain colors bring out the best in certain individuals.  This was the beginning of Color Analysis and Image consulting.

What exactly is color analysis and how would I know my best colors?  Color analysis is a system or a process used by image consultants in finding out each individuals true "best" colors.  Consultants have different techniques in doing this.  In my case, I use drapes and color flags to determine my students' or clients' best colors.  The goal is for them to discover what are the best colors for them to have and to wear, as these colors are the ones that complement their skin, hair and eye color. 

You will notice that one of the photos of myself stands out more than the other.  Can you guess which of the two is my best color? Find out after the break!

Color blue is the right answer!  I have a cool undertone, which is why I would look better wearing "cool" colors like blue, some shades of purple, cool greens, most pinks, etc..

When one discovers his or her best colors, it becomes easier to choose clothing for one's self for different occasions like parties, job interviews, meetings, presentations.  Some may even use colors as a way to attract more attention and positive feedback, which can be important if you're giving a proposal or you're presenting to a crowd.

So whether you are a salesman, teacher, executive or even a young teenager, discovering your best colors have many benefits.  Do you know your best colors already?
