Comments on: Sites To Know : Pretty Your World http://www.agreenertea.com/sites-to-know-pretty-your-world/ ...on aging with strength and beauty Sat, 31 Jul 2010 01:18:20 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Christine Scaman http://www.agreenertea.com/sites-to-know-pretty-your-world/comment-page-1/#comment-933 Christine Scaman Fri, 06 Mar 2009 22:14:47 +0000 http://www.agreenertea.com/?p=1281#comment-933 I don't recognize the Natural Autumn distinction - in the 12 Season scheme that I know best, the choices for this season are Soft Autumn, Warm Autumn, and Deep Autumn. There are other naming systems, perhaps Natural Autumn came from one of those. Can you find yourself among the Autumn choices at Pretty Your World (www.prettyyourworld.com) ? I'd gladly tell you your colors if it were something that could just be told. I would guess that pink is not your best color, at least not powder pink. Beyond that, you can wear most colors, as long as you stick to certain shades of those colors. If you've looked online and had trouble finding your shades, I sympathize. The colors are not easy to find on the internet. You can look at www.ireneeonline.com, where there are some good examples. I think you'll have to login and go through the questionnaire, but it's worth it. The problem is that the final color selection is a bit limited, like 20 colors or so, and you're still not sure it's right for you because nobody's ever looked at you. Your best bet is still going to be to have yourself color-analyzed to identify your own best season and own your swatches. That way, you'll always know which reds, yellows, greens, etc are YOUR 50 or 60 most flattering shades. That's how you end the wondering when you shop.

In an article I'll post soon, you'll see Lora's analysis of me, which she did at no cost, in exchange for publishing the article about Pretty Your World. I did buy the $63 book of swatches, which anyone can do without the full analysis. I know my colors from the original 4 Season Autumn chart by heart, but not every color is bang on great on me. You and I are both Autumns, but wear quite different colors to look our best. You can do black and I can't. I wanted to know which were the perfect colors for me. As well as I know the 4 Season charts, once we get into 12 Seasons and 48 colors, I get mixed up. There is no doubt this system works and empowers people, inside and out, and it's too easy to achieve this. Why would anyone settle for so-so or just-missed when you can get to holy-s----you-look-good? My swatches haven't arrived yet because Lora tells me that a new kit is being released in March and I decided to wait for that one. If you want to wait till then, I'll definitely tell you what I think of mine. I agree that you are a Deep Autumn. Rich, dark colors and gorgeous in tomato red, not so good in fuchsia.

I am tempted but wonder if you have done and what you think. I think I am a deep autumn as she states that 80% of her diagnosis goes by eye colour and mine are dark brown but not sure . Do you think it was worth it? Looking at the celebs in that category and not certain if I am like any of them. Perhaps my skin has lightened since I had them professionally done almost 30 years ago. Gawd has it been that long? yikes! So tell me did you do the $89.95 survey and get your color swatches etc?

I learned a whole lot there. The examples were very useful. So, which are you? What I really would love to know is how you decided which you are. Soft Summer and Soft Autumn seem very different. I always get hung up between Summer and Spring. Hi, Kathy,

So, which are you?

What I really would love to know is how you decided which you are. Soft Summer and Soft Autumn seem very different. I always get hung up between Summer and Spring.

However, I'm still confused as to whether I am a soft summer or soft autumn. I checked out the Pretty your world site and thought it was great! I particularly liked identifying the celebs seasons. Please continue to blog about great sites like this one. Kathy Hi Christine,
