How To Choose Colour
It may sound obvious, but the first step is to wear a colour you love. Let your eye lead you to the colours that speak to you. Think about what flowers make you smile or the colours you love to have in your home.
The next step is to consider the tone and shade. Try different variations of the same colour and see which complement your skin tone the best.

Are There Right and Wrong Colours?
If you love a colour and feel fabulous wearing it, we say, go for it! There is no right or wrong. But, if you’re unsure, it’s good to have a couple of pro-tips in your back pocket to help to get you started.
Too much black can appear harsh against the softer tones of mature skin. It can make fine lines, wrinkles and circles under the eyes seem darker. Try charcoal grey, navy blue or another deep colour for a softer result. If you’re worried about a colour making you look washed out, use the colour of your eyes, hair and skin as a guide.
Think Natural Quality
The quality and fabric of your wardrobe is arguably more important than the colour. Look at the shape and cut and choose timeless styles that work for your body shape. Investing in pieces that will last, such as 100% wool, lambswool or cashmere is good advice whatever the colour.
All our clothes are made from natural fibres that with the proper care will last and keep their colour for years. As we know, wearing your clothes for longer is the first step to a more sustainable lifestyle. That is why choosing natural fabrics that stand the test of time is always the best way forward.

Colour Myths
Don’t be fooled by these colour-related myths!
Blue and green should never be seen.
Not true. Blue and green fall into the ‘related colours’ rule meaning they sit next to each other on an artist’s painting palette. If you love them and they make you feel confident, they should absolutely be seen together.
Bold colour is only for young people.
Rubbish! Bold colours can brighten the skin and lift your mood. Nobody wants to be invisible. There are no hard and fast rules to wearing bright colours. If in doubt start with a bold accessory.
Black is the most slimming.
Not necessarily. The quality and fabric are more important than colour here. If you invest in well-made pieces in quality materials, such as 100% wool, lambswool or cashmere, you will feel comfortable and confident.
