What Season Are You?

Have you ever thought that when you have all the answers, life changes all the questions? It happened to me a couple of years ago. I thought I knew all about the subject of colors. Then, I saw an advertisement from a school in London teaching color therapy courses. It sparked my curiosity enough that I enrolled, and a few months later, I became a colour therapist. I was on a roll to learn more about this fascinating and infinite topic. I found a Brazilian woman who teaches color analysis. She often comes to the US to teach in person. I waited until she came to San Francisco to take her course, and ultimately, I became a color analyst.

Colour analysis is concerned with achieving color harmony and balance. Magic happens after a session of color analysis. Sometimes, one makes a discovery. Other times, it is surprising to learn the best color for one’s complexion is the color never imagined. When this happens, old beliefs about one’s color are challenged. as it happened to me with the Teal color. I never considered it to be my best, I found it dull and uninteresting.


Color analysis plays an important role. It transforms people. The choices made after a session, day after day, are also crucial. A thorough self-awareness is essential. With this awareness, one can make informed decisions. These decisions will help in buying the right clothes in the right colors. The guidance lasts for many years to come, resulting in looking radiant on all occasions and saving money.

2026 Colors: Warm Mahogany, Transformative Teal, Cerulean Blue, Key Lime Green, Silver.

I discovered that in my Soft Summer palette, Teal is a very good color for me. It makes sparkles when paired with brown. It is a perfect discovery, as these are the colors of 2026 as well. New color energy is entering my wardrobe.

Colors are not merely suggestions. One must like them first to consider using them. Above all, they must suit our essence to achieve a great color harmony. Ciao,
Valentina

    I had a colour analysis done years ago and if I remember correctly I was considered a fall/winter. They seem to suit me well.

      Mary, what was said years ago about personal colors, might not still be good today. We refresh the walls in the home every 4-5 years, the same way we need to refresh our personal colors. If your body and face have not changed and you still like your season, then all it’s good.

    Hi Valentina, I enjoyed this post. I took a colour analysis course years ago. Sadly, my colours are pastels and I don’t like wearing pastels. I like to wear very bright colours like orange, pink, yellow and green. I am glad I know which colours suit me even if I don’t follow the advice.
