In this episode we are covering, what colours suit you, how to match colours in your outfits as well as how to create your colour palette.
When it comes to colour, theres a lot of information out there on the internet, and I wanted to share the steps I took myself to understand what colours might suit me. As well as sharing the steps I took to create my colour palette (which was the missing link to finding my style!) However, I am not professionally trained in this area. I have only just started my seasonal colour analysis education, so I didn’t go deep into this in today’s video. In the description below, I have linked resources that I found helpful from people who ARE qualified in these areas. #confusedtocurated

This topic can be overwhelming, don’t overcomplicate it for yourself and get stuck in ‘analysis paralysis.’ X 💕 Download the workbook here: mailchi.mp/emilyelizabethmay/closet-curation-series-free-workbook #confusedtocurated

I wanted to add that Adobe has a free website on which you can play around with the colour wheel. Very helpful!

@EmilyElizabethMay 12 дней назад

Oh amazing! 🫶 I had no idea! Thank you for sharing this.

@lindaoregan9599 12 дней назад

One problem??? Just because we have the perfect colour palette doesn't mean we can actually find the clothes in those colours. My colours are soft and cool but most clothes are bright or neutral.

@EmilyElizabethMay 12 дней назад

Oh yes this is such a good point. It can be sooo much harder to actually source the exact colours!! I heard someone talk about it once, saying that they understood and accept that in summer they couldn’t buy many clothes and in winter they could buy more. But some years, even in winter the right colours weren’t on trend for them and they just had to accept it. I think finding common neutrals that suit you for those moments is probably my most helpful advice at this time 🩷

@EmilyElizabethMay 12 дней назад

Also, finding brands like Colourful Standard, that do lots of different ranges of colours. And just spending a lot of time searching online.

@Teverell 12 дней назад

I hear you! I've only recently been able to find pieces in the shades of green and yellow that work best with my skin tone because until recently pale greens were mint green not sage and the only pastel yellow seemed to be lemon which has far too much blue in it for me. It's worth looking second-hand for things, and being patient - if a colour has been popular once, it will be again and in the meantime it'll be available second-hand in charity shops, Depop, eBay or Vinted.

@SoNick25 12 дней назад

YES you are so right! So when you do come across something in that color, GRAB IT!!!! For many years, here in Japan, green wasn't very popular and never in muted or pastel hues. Then suddenly, about two years ago, green flooded the market, especially a soft mint green which is the color of my eyes. I made sure to pick up many pieces that I am enjoying even now, when that color is no longer on sale!!

@user-pe2ru1ro3m День назад

i recently found your channel and love your thoughtful, well edited videos! I've been on a style journey recently and having my "colors" evaluated by Created Colorful was so helpful. I'm drawn to colors that don't look good on me (gray, black, light blue and white stripes) and for years bought these items and wondered why i felt blah when i wore them. Now i know that I'm a soft autumn and instead buy soft browns, greens and terracotta. This has made shopping SO much easier and when i do cave and buy something not in my color, i almost always end up donating it because i never feel good when i wear it.

@katem3961 12 дней назад

This was incredibly helpful, Emily. I love colour in my wardrobe, and agree that having around 9 or 10 is a great number. Your new blouse is so flattering on you and has so many of your colours in the material. What a great find. Thank you 😄. This series is amazing ❤

@moafjonsson 11 дней назад

Great advice!! So I did the vein color test a while ago and came to the conclusion that my veins are bright light blue. But that didn't feel right at all. I didn't associate my feautures with either cool or bright. So: I took a picture of my face and put it into canva and estracted (or whatever the word is) my natural colors from the photo and realized that my colors are warm and muted and after some research i came to the conclusion that I am a true autumn. I told my mom about it and she looked at me and just shook her head and pointed out that I am have copper red hair and that I tan easily and have more freckles than most people have brain cells... so why go through so much trouble to find out the obvious - that i am a warm, muted color type. So I guess my tip here is don't overthink it and also, keep your momma in the loop 😂 cause they knoww

I do tend to gravitate towards the neutral tones but I do like a bit of colour, ie lilac, burgundy and green. That blouse looks lovely on you 🙂

@EmilyElizabethMay 12 дней назад

Beautiful colours! Similar to me, I like neutrals most and have a few more colourful pieces to add with them.

Thank you so much for making these series. I struggle recreating what I have in mind and I think this will help get my thoughts and vision straight. Downloaded your workbook so I am curious about the whole process :) The only thing I'm missing (and maybe you will address this on your subsequent videos) is how to pick and combine shoes to match our outfits. Personally, picking the right shoes holds me back from truly daring to try the styles I want because I inevitably end up wearing snickers over an over again with more or less the same outfit style. It can look very boring. Any advice on that is very much appreciated!

@EmilyElizabethMay 8 дней назад

Shoes is something I didn’t include in this series, but I realise it probably should have been included so I definitely intend to make a video about choosing the right shoes asap (following the series). Thank you for sharing this with me! I hope you enjoy the series and let me know what you think of the workbook. Is designed to help you self-reflect and hopefully learn. Which is what I did myself. I hope it’s helpful! X

Another great video Emily! 🤗Knowing our season is very helpful to stick to a color palette that suits our skintone and avoid bad purchases. I am a cool season and I am naturally attracted to the colors that suit me the most. Love your blouse! 😍I found a similar one in burgundy with navy blue flowers online a couple of years ago for 5$ US. I still wear this blouse every fall and winter. My favorite color is navy blue so it matches my navy blue skirt, pants, blazer, etc. 🥰

@annamichelle3248 10 дней назад

This was very helpful. I always thought I was warm-toned because I like many fall colors, and they suit me. But there are also cool tones that are flattering. And I prefer silver jewelry over gold, and can wear either. Now I suspect I'm a neutral. That makes more sense.

@Myaussiehome 11 дней назад

My favourite tip has been the one about using 3 colours I'm each outfit. I taught mu daughter and she looks amazing when she wears 3 colours. It's so much nicer than 1-2 colours or.too many colours like I previously dressed.

Great series. I just updated my palette. I have colors for Spring/Summer and another palette for Fall/winter. As a deep winter, I’ll wear the darker version of my colors in Fall/Winter and less strong versions in Spring/Summer. Light neutrals are difficult for me. I only like white near my face. I Really don’t like white bottoms. Stone color is okay, but very hard to find. Thank you Emily. 😊

3:18 - the colour palette I have been building over the last couple of years or so has those _exact_ shades of terracotta, yellow and olive green in, as well as a couple of pieces in a dusty rose colour and some sage green. (Yep, I'm a warm-toned Autumn). I am so glad that the colours that are on-trend right now are more warm-toned, it's been really hard to find a good sage green and banana or honey yellow; until recently the light greens were more mint and the pale yellows were pretty much lemon, both of which look awful on me!

Was hearing a few days ago about a more triadic colour system… from our skin tone… being red, blue and yellow … I think… anyways, A more in depth grown, up, scientifically collated data plan for each individual!…it blew my mind!….

Such useful content, but spoiled by the editing - so many cuts that jump in video and sound, really distracting from the good information.

@darlenemahaney1258 9 дней назад

If you are cutting as frequently as you do to keep the time down, I know I would be happy with longer videos! It is a bit distracting during the parts when you speak directly to the camera. But I love your videos/content/personality regardless!😉😙

@@darlenemahaney1258 thanks so much lovely. I think the cutting frequently is more so because I pause so much between words while I’m thinking of what word to say next. I’ll try cut out the gaps in a more fluid way. I edited these videos pretty fast because I wanted them finished before I went on holiday. But it’s helpful feedback and I’ll definitely work on it for the future 🩷🙏 xoxo
