The Best and Worst of TRUE WINTER

[@danil.6667]

That end collage is so good! As beautiful as these celebrities are, they looked pretty awful in their worst colours. But the collage of them in their colours shows how stunning they actually are!

[@jodien5800]

I am a true winter and I was going through my wardrobe looking for something to wear as I watched this video. I went for an orchid purple top in the end which made me pop in the most flattering way.

[@BridgetCappel]

@@jodien5800 ooo I love that!! Purple is so underrated 💜

[@briannalove3501]

Love this one! It is so clear, especially in the collages, how much better they look honoring their colors! I’d love to see a true summer or warm spring 😭

[@evaeilea]

Could you please do the same for Deep Winter? I think people mistake the high intensity needed in that palette with contrast, as it it lowest in contrast and brightness compared to true winter and bright winter

[@BridgetCappel]

Absolutely! I’ve been pondering deep/dark winter for a while now so maybe that’s a sign I need to talk about that next!

[@helena51troy]

So fun. Thanks. It really illustrates how much the right colors can change a look.

[@celeste96656]

This was SO informative💓 It’s insane how much of a difference the cool saturated colors and having contrast makes. Especially with Selena.

[@BridgetCappel]

So glad you liked it! Yes Selena is all over the place but when she’s in True Winter it is MAGICAL!!

[@FitnessStriver]

Loved this video! As a true winter I appreciated the collage at the end…sometimes I go back to wearing nude lips and brown eyeshadow but seeing the huge difference it makes was eye-opening! Thank you

[@jacs8151]

Couldn’t have said it better

[@wattle2394]

Really a pleasure to watch this. thanks for all your effort!

[@BridgetCappel]

My pleasure!

[@marialwable]

So so good! I’d love to see another one for bright winter ✨

[@KathBorup]

Fun video. Janelle Monet is fabulous! I love her style. I would also love to see more videos in this series. I'm a warm autumn 🧡

[@gutsandgrittv5076]

That was really interesting. Thank you ❤

[@sleepysocks]

I wanted to leave some recomendations for the true winter girlies in here! I have a really hard time finding foundation and concealer that is cool and pale enough, and I think this is a common thing for seasons that are this cool toned. I use maybeline age rewind in colour 5 - brightner, that's the only concealer i have found that is pink and cool enough for me, and Dior backstge body and face foundation in 0cR (cool rose). I know, it's expencive but wort it for me at least, 'cause everything else looks yellow!

[@BridgetCappel]

Thanks for sharing those recommendations!

[@lorilee1931]

This was so good. Can you please do bright spring celebs next, please?

[@jacs8151]

Thanks for recording this three times. Loved every second of this video. New subscriber ❤

[@BridgetCappel]

@@jacs8151 😂 Thank you so much! Glad you’re here and happy to redo videos so you all have at least decent audio/video quality!!

[@peopleofmiami]

Great video! Would you please do Dark Winter? You explain things so well and detailed. Amazing.

[@BridgetCappel]

Dark winter is already filmed! Just working on editing right now so it will be out soon!

[@cedamin]

I love these videos Bridget! I am a bright winter and I have watched your best and worst of bright winter video at least ten times, it's the best information out there for BW and so much fun to watch, thank you! I was never officially draped but figured it out together with my friend, it was a whole journey. Maybe you can do soft autumn next for her? She was so disapointed with those 'boring colors' but on her it looks pretty and romantic.

[@BridgetCappel]

Ooo soft autumn would be really fun! So glad you liked the first one in my series 😄 I have fun making these so that means a lot!!

[@cedamin]

@@BridgetCappel I found bright winter a bit of a tricky season and a lot to embrace sometimes (and I am an SD too like you., dramatic AND bright lol). It helped a lot! 🥰

[@Houseofgamine]

This has me wanting to get rid of every color that isn’t true winter. You don’t realize how not great it looks until these comparisons. Well done!

[@BridgetCappel]

So glad you enjoyed!! It’s so hard to hang on to things that aren’t in our colors once you can see the difference it makes. Happy hunting on building your True Winter dream wardrobe!

[@KcKctea]

Thank you for your efforts! Cool video 🎉

[@BridgetCappel]

Thanks for watching!

[@TheVeterinaryLifeCoachDrJulieC]

Another amazing video! I always learn so much and am fascinated how the right colors improve everything! Keep the videos coming!!! 🥰

[@BridgetCappel]

Thank you mom 🥰🥰🥰

[@alihounsome8813]

Fantastic video!

[@P0SHED]

I’m a winter, but my eyes are always drawn to my ‘worst colours’ 😂

[@BridgetCappel]

Girl me too. I love mustard yellow and deep red but I look so sickly in them. Luckily my husband is a true autumn and I can enjoy those beautiful colors on him 😆

[@FerreiraFarm]

I love your videos! Thank you for such helpful content 🥰🙏🏼

[@BridgetCappel]

Thank you so much! So glad you enjoy them!

[@アシキン]

I'm a true winter but I'm a hijabis. It's hard to pick a hijab in true winter colours coz I need to exclude all the jewel colours from the list or it'll look really weird. Wearing a cherry red hijab is just like dying your hair cherry red. It's not normal at all. That left only neutral colours for the hijabs so it's boring 🥲. And it's tricky when I need to match my clothes to my hijab.

[@BridgetCappel]

@@アシキン oh that’s an interesting point! True winters have some beautiful blues and navy’s, or even a dark emerald green. You can always do black or white as well. True winter has lots of great neutrals and there are options for color that are more modest than a pink or cool red. Look up the TCI True Winter color palate and see if there are any options that might be more fun to wear without being too much. Hope that is helpful!

[@groovy7521]

This has helped me understand true winter so much more! I didn't feel like I fit the vibe enough until seeing this

[@BridgetCappel]

Oh I’m so glad!!

[@banannapotato2595]

Id love to hear you talk about true summers :)!

[@larissastauffer]

This makes so much sense!! I wonder if I am some sort of bright (or bright-ish) season, because I kept seeing myself in soft colors and thinking, wow I look even softer than the color, guess I need to go softer yet. And then the softer colors would look even worse, so I would think they are just wrong in terms of warmth/coolness, but no matter how much I adjusted I would just feel drab and dragged down in everything I would wear. I've been trying out brighter/lighter/clearer colors and I think I am moving in the right direction! Your theories in this video make it all potentially make sense!

[@BridgetCappel]

I think you are on to something!!

[@natasha9805]

this was good 👍🏿 thank you !

[@BridgetCappel]

@@natasha9805 you’re welcome!!

[@kathleenreese5010]

This is a really interesting video! I love the many examples you used. I am a bright winter soft gamine with silver hair. I would love a similar video with bright winter with a silver hair example. Thank you!

[@BridgetCappel]

I would love to do that! Let me look and see if I can find a good example.

Hi Bridget👋, Could you pretty please do Deep Winter?🙏 I have struggled for years either going too warm🥵 into the Deep Autumn side, or too cool🥶 into True Winter. I would love to see what you think is the best way to style this transitional season. Thank you!😊

[@BridgetCappel]

I will of course do Dark Winter!!

[@JC-yc8wg]

@@BridgetCappel Thank you! 😊

[@hannah_marie97]

I dont agree with the powder blue. I wore a powder blue as a bridesmaid and it really made me pop- I had so many compliments and it was a lovely cool/medium value colour which did not clash with my understone.

[@BridgetCappel]

@@hannah_marie97 winters can wear light colors well and have them in their palettes but they need to lean more icy and bright than pastel and soft. It’s a subtle difference. Your dress was probably a more clear powder blue which is why it worked well for you. I have a dress like that too which is lovely! The blazer in the video appeared a little too soft which created optical illusions on their skin making them appear more gray than they are.

[@magiesand8442]

I did my color analysis this morning and I was told I am a true winter. This goes against everything I’ve ever worn and liked on me. I always thought I was a soft autumn. 😢

[@BridgetCappel]

You will learn to embrace it if you want to! I was convinced I was a dark autumn (don’t ask me how) and so shocked when I was draped as a bright winter 😅 took some getting used to and I STILL have trouble finding clothes and feeling comfortable walking into the room in the brightest clothes of anyone there. But there’s no denying how great you’ll look in your seasons colors!!

[@samanthamartin1407]

Me too.... 😅 I thought I was a soft autumn, and when the soft autumn colors didn't look good, I convinced myself that I must be even more muted than that

[@RK-qs5dy]

30:55 - I would be interested to see your take on bright spring 🏵️

[@BridgetCappel]

I will definitely look at Bright Spring! My sister in law is one and I would love to have her on to demonstrate 😄

[@RK-qs5dy]

@@BridgetCappel It would be awesome! Seeing colours on the real person is even better than seeing celebrity examples. To be honest I like real people much more than celebs but I understand not everyone is willing to be on camera. I have quite a few bright spring colours in my wardrobe (just can't resist🤷🏻‍♀️), it's definitely not the worst thing I could do, bright spring is my sister season after all, but it'll be very enlightening to see someone who is bright and primarily neutral-warm.

[@BridgetCappel]

@@RK-qs5dy the primary reason for using celebs is that they have so many photos taken of them in so many different colors/hairstyles/makeup looks etc. So it’s easy to narrow down their season and use them as examples. But I agree, real live people are prefered!

[@cathwalsh9921]

I don’t know if you count true winter as cool winter, but if not I’d like to see one on cool winter and the difference between that and bright. I’m supposed to be bright winter but I don’t think I’m as bright as you and don’t seem to be able to take the slight crossing over to bright spring colours.

[@BridgetCappel]

Cool Winter from my understanding is just True Winter with different branding but I’ll have to look into it. I will do a video on this because I know it is confusing!

[@cathwalsh9921]

@@BridgetCappel I look forward to that 😊 I find it all so interesting

[@RC-md4dd]

I’m somewhere between a dark and a true winter according to my color analysis….

[@jeanettekays1954]

That collage says it all.

[@almondmilk4601]

Can you please do soft winter?

[@BridgetCappel]

In what system would I find soft winter? As far as my understanding goes, winter is by definition the opposite of soft. It is characterized by cool, clear colors. If you were to soften winter, you would get soft/muted and cool which would be a summer palate.

[@majatyler4985]

I think I found my colour season. And it's a winter. I don't know if true or bright winter. I've got pale skin, ashy natural hair and really dark blue grayish frosty eyes. I can wear blonde, but it has to be a ashy, silver, grayish tone with some darker roots. But in the past I wear my hair dark up to black. I've always have been the snow white type. Warm orange, yellow or a wrong red made me look sick. Gold blond or brazzy lokking hair is the worst for me. I think I've tried to fit in the summer season with the lighter hair but the pale pinks looking worse on me. The icy tones, dark navy, burgundy. The real cool tones are the best. I always struggle with bronzer, rosty to warm eyeshadows. They doesn't blend into my skin. So after watching your videos I've understood: I can "lean" into a sort of summer type, but I think the winter features (contrast, cool toned and so far what I've understood fabric matters, too) would stand out more. Thank you😊😊

[@BridgetCappel]

Glad I could help! Planning a bright winter vs true winter video soon so stay tuned!! Maybe that will help you narrow it down

[@froufou100]

just to let you know that the sound is very low, even when I put it on high, it's low. Great to see before and after, thanks!
