Your BEST Blue to Wear

[@French-Kiss24]

I had warmish brown/black hair in my youth, with very pale skin and dark hazel eyes. So I always wore bright chroma colors due to my high contrast. As I’ve aged, I’ve softened my colors, but I’ve realized I can’t wear blue. I never could. I look good in teal and turquoise and the slightly warmer brighter greens. So I can’t wear navy or true blue without looking dead. Yet, a medium-dark periwinkle is one of my best colors. I’ve lately learned that I have pale olive skin. The slightly warmer blush and lipstick work much better on me, but I can’t wear pumpkin colors. So I’ve given up trying to fit in a category. I’ve learned to stick in the middle - not too warm and not too cool.

I’m awaiting my results, and I think I’m a SWM (light brown hair, green/brown hazel eyes, and peachy skin). I look good in teals and aquas, but sometimes in regular blue if it has a bit of depth to it.

Love the examples, Jen. They really bring your colour theory to life.

Great information! Ty I noticed you used the bright color wheel. Can you do the same video but using soft or muted color wheel? I am pale olive leaning green, muted, and have dark hair with natural grey streaks. Which blues would be my best blues?

Hi. your best blue would likely be a medium to dark blue or medium to dark royal blue which leans a little purple

I'm a SCM and the only blue I really like to wear is navy.

I can see that. Navy is a muted blue and will look terrific on you. Also consider a gray-blue.
