Happy Tuesday beauties!
As I'm sure many of you have noticed through personal experience, there are certain colors that look amazing on you and others, not so much. Girl, I can relate, we all can in fact and you know what? It's okay! Not every color and piece of clothing is going to look spectacular on us, it's just not realistic because designers don't have your or me specifically in mind when creating their collections.
However, there are a group of colors that are a no fail and WILL look good on you and me, regardless of our skin and hair color/tone, which stated in today's blog title, is the jewel tone category. What exactly are jewel tones and how will you be able to determine if the sweater you're looking at when shopping would be classified as one? (Whoa, that's a mouth full!). Simply put, they're colors that are highly saturated and have somewhat of a heaviness on the eye, does that make sense? They also resemble well known semi and precious gemstones, such as a sapphire (shown above).
Since these colors are heavily saturated, they make our skin and hair tone/color pop, even more so when worn closest to the face, which is why I've shared sweaters as my examples. I also selected styles that I felt were universally flattering, since none of them have any special details, patterns, or embellishments, in case you were interested in adding any to your sweater wardrobe.
Have YOU ever worn anything in a jewel tone color before? Thanks so much for stopping by, my dear friends, and I hope your day is as fabulous as YOU!
XO,
