There’s one colour that’s in EVERYONE’S WARDROBE and that’s the colour BLACK. I think this is because black feels like it’s always in style - it’s timeless. DID YOU KNOW though that black isn’t flattering on most complexions, but especially those with a warm undertone. This is because black features only in the Winter palette when you use seasonal colour analysis. Winter, and consequently black, is cool and dark and it’s precisely this darkness that cause it to be unflattering on most people. Why I hear you cry?! Because the darkness of black creates shadows which deepen fine lines and wrinkles and make us look older than we are. Sorry, but it’s true and those of you that have had a Colour Analysis will know exactly what I’m talking about. As a Personal Stylist, I’m here to advise you on how to look and feel your best. The advice I give is simply that, advice. Ultimately I’m all about building confidence, so if you have a black outfit and it gives you that confidence then own it - wear the outfit whether it suits you or not. Interestingly, I often find after demonstrating how harsh black can be my clients make an active choice to avoid wearing black directly under their face. This is a decision they come to naturally. Do I wear black? Yes! In fact my two of my most favourite outfits are black despite it not being my best colour but that’s because these outfits make me feel incredible and ultimately that’s how we should feel in our clothes. So, if you’re worried that after a Colour Analysis black will be banished forever then fear not because I’ll guide you on “how not to wear black”. www.clarewatkins.com 🖤♠️◼️♣️🏴 personal styling - women’s styling - women’s stylist - styling - style inspo - personal stylist - personal shopper - style inspiration - image consultant - style coach - stylist - fashion stylist - wardrobe stylist - style advice - style inspiration . . . . . clarewatkinspersonalstyling personalstylistmanchester colouranalysismanchester personalstylist stylist colouranalysis colourconsultant personalstylistcheshire
