But I do feel like I have learned a lot so far.

It may take a long time, and maybe even multiple professional analyses. I’m not sure if I’ve found my seasonal home yet.
#12blueprints true autumn skin#
It can’t tell you how your skin will react. Anything that tries to use a flowchart to determine something as variable as natural color, just click the “x” at the top of the screen. Each Kibbe and each palette has a very wide spectrum of how it can be used and applied, and there is no one way for a person of this Type or Season to look.
I think it’s important, for both color analysis and Kibbe, to let go of preconceived notions of what a certain type should look like and how they should dress. I find myself loving those deep, rich colors. While there’s some of that, looking at True Autumn palettes, there were a ton of colors–actual colors!–I connected with, and can’t wait to try on: I’d also always thought of Autumn palettes as containing a lot of orange and brown. The grays are warmer, there’s more yellow, but a lot of the colors I like–the warm grays, the corally peaches, the olives–are still there. True Autumn’s neutrals are quite similar:
One thing I also realized is that I was only connecting to Light Spring’s neutrals. But your skin doesn’t lie (although the camera does, so like I said, I’m going to do an in-person color consultation eventually). True Autumn was a palette I never considered because I look nothing like the stereotypical True Autumn woman. What was suggested for me is True Autumn. What I am pretty certain of is that I am probably not a Spring. I also realized that the only way I can confirm this is to be analyzed professionally. I can only understand how colors look on me when they were reacting to my face in real time. So all of my previous drapings, opinions, etc. (I have also learned that just because you have natural light golden blonde hair does NOT mean you can wear Barbie pink.) In the span of five minutes, with photographs taken in the same spot, I went from looking on the sallow side to like I had a sunburn, all depending on what color I was wearing.
What I discovered is that my skin is EXTREMELY reactive to colors. So I decided to do some drapes using actual fabrics, not just photoshopping colors onto myself. But as I also wrote about in that post, I have been having a hard time connecting to the Light Spring palette. I don’t think that anyone looking at me would think otherwise, except to perhaps suggest Light Summer. If you read my Banning Black post, you’ll know that I considered myself a Light Spring. Somehow, I feel like every time I write something about where I am on this journey to discover my natural colors, lines, and style personality, I soon figure out that I’m not what I thought it was at all.
