A lot of you don’t realise that it’s the wrong colour not the wrong outfit. The colours you wear, should compliment your skin tone. Jazmin Whitley, designer of Li Cari label says “there are three major types of skin tones, the dark, fair and olive/medium skin colour” she also gives advice on the colours of clothes to avoid depending on your skin tone.

Dark skinned ladies should avoid having too much brown, black or orange in their outfits. Instead, trying going for lighter shades like plum, lavender or pastel colours. Soft neutrals would also go well with your dark skin.

Fair skinned girls should avoid wearing colours like white, gold or pastels and go for darker colours like black, grey and red, which would compliment their skin tone better.

Medium/olive skinned ladies must avoid wearing clothes with too much golden under tones like caramel, orange and brown and go for colours like pink, red and blue tones.

I guess you get the jig now. Always try contrasting the colour of your skin with the colour of your outfit. Dark skin colour should be contrasted with brighter, eye-catching colours. Do not wash out light skin. If you are light skinned, stand out with stronger colours. With medium skin, always avoid the middle of the road and go either bright or dark with your clothes.

Stay true to your colour!!
