Colour Seasons...which season r u?

Recently been having conversations about colour-coding with friends..thought it's quite interesting. I am still not sure which type I belong to....but while out with Keri and Syl the other day, Syl was saying I am definately a Winter. Am I?
Hmmmm....*scratches head*

Below information is useful if you wanna try find out about yours...



Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall - are used to break down cool and warm colors further. Summer and Winter are “cool” seasons; Spring and Autumn are “warm” seasons.

Cool Color Seasons

Summer is a cool tone with blue or pink undertones and a low level of contrast between their hair, eye color and skin tone. They need soft neutrals and pastels, as well as muted colors with cool undertones. Powder blue, dusty pink, mauve, lavender, plum, and pale yellow will complement them. Avoid intense, vivid hues because they will look harsh. Earth tones, black and orange will also drown out the skin.
Summer celebrities: Denise Richards, Eva Habermann, Jeri Ryan


Winter profiles have a lot of depth to their coloring and a lot of contrast between their hair color, eye color and skin tone. Winters need hues that are sharp, stark and clear to complement their skin. They look best in intense, rich colors, like black, navy blue, red, and hot pink. For lighter colors, wear bright white or icy pastels, such as cool blues, pinks and yellows. Avoid earthy tones and subdued colors like beige, orange and gold as they will make the skin look unhealthy.
Winter celebrities: Alicia Keys, Rosario Dawson, Kristin Kreuk

Warm Color Seasons

Springs can wear very pale, soft colors, such as peach, camel, golden yellow, golden brown, and aqua. They also look good in ivory, bright greens, true reds, clear blues and coral. Avoid colors that are too dull and muted or too dark. Avoid black and white, which are also too contrasting.
Spring celebrities: Gillian Anderson, Lindsay Lohan, Evangeline Lily

Autumn profiles have a lot of depth to their warm skin tone. Rich golden, spicy, and earthy colors will accent the complexion. Autumns can wear both muted and rich warm colors that are seen in autumn leaves such as camel, beige, olive, orange, gold, and dark brown. They also look great in a rich warm grey.
Autumn celebrities: Jessica Alba, Natalie Portman, Aishwarya Rai
