When you know what colours look best on you, you’re self-assurance is given a boost because you know you look your best. Everybody has unique skin tone and eye colour and that means a good deal of colours are going to look great and a good deal of not so good. You need to know what works in concord with your eyes, hair and skin tones. Knowing and wearing the proper colours makes you look younger and healthier. To know what colours work best for you, you could go to a colour analysist. This is where you meet up with a colour mentor and the session lasts for more than one hours. The mentor will give you samples of the colours that best suit you and your skin tones. At the end of the session you better know what colours are right for you.
Whether or not you can not afford to go to a colour mentor there are more than one simple rules you may follow to get the best out of your colours in your wardrobe.

Stand ahead of a mirror with a great deal of natural light.

Get all your coloured garments suchlike blouses, tops and dresses out of the wardrobe and put them near you.
Wear a plain white t-shirt so that any colours you put against your face won’t clash.

Take each garment, hold it against yourself and see what the colour does for you. Ask yourself whether or not it makes you look tired, or does it stand out more than you. Or does it have the contrary effect of really showing of your eyes and lifting your complexion and giving you a radiant glow.

You may do this with all the different colours in your wardrobe and at the end you better have an idea of what works best for you.
