It is really important to have your basics right before you flaunt any new style. Here we list you some of the fashion sins which people often commit.
Unflattering colour palette: Not all skin tones are created equal. Here’s a guide on what will suit you best based on your skin tone.
1. Fair skin: Light colours like beige, sea foam, rose and other pastels are recommended for you. Creamy colours with a hint of peach will work wonders. Mix bright and colourful pieces with more subtle hues. If you have dark hair, you will look absolutely stunning in rich purples, emerald greens and deep reds. Avoid blacks as they will make you look washed out.
2. Golden skin: It is a few shades darker than light skin. Any colour looks gorgeous on this skin tone. Try colourful pieces, such as sage green pants, during the day. For the evening go with subtle yet powerful hues like green or girly pink. Any shade of blue looks beautiful too. Black, the most slimming, simple and intriguing of all colours, looks great on you.
3. Bronze skin: It’s that beautiful “I just got back from Goa” skin tone. Turquoises, oranges and pinks look best on you. Any colour that’s a mix between two others is the key. It plays up your tanned look. If you dare to do so, try a shade of red and steal the spotlight.
