How to wear GENTLE COLOUR this Spring
Sunday, 21 March 2010
To keep in with the calming down theme of fashion at the moment, this season soft, gentle tints of colour are every where. There are Chanel inspired hints of blue, Lacoste lemons and gorgeous pistachio greens. Its goodbye black and hello candy sweetie shop pastels!
TIPS ON HOW TO WEAR IT
Wear your tints of colour with a base neutral of taupe, stone or pewter. Don't make the look too harsh by adding contrasting colours
If you have clear or deep colouring, you will struggle with this trend. You need to accessorise harder to pull this look off, especially at the neckline.
Give the look a bit of an edge by choosing thigh high cuts.
Get out the fake tan, a little colour will compliment the tints.
How to wear this seasons NUDES
This seasons' nude neutrals are great for most skin types. The key to working the look is to layer up varieties of nudes together and choose a mixture of textures. People can often steer clear of nudes, afraid they can be dull. Dont think of them as flat. Varying the fabrics can make them look more interesting. The nude colours change when worn with a mixture of nude neutrals.
Nudes are timeless, elegant and very feminine. Look out for soft blush pinks, creamy beiges and pale camels. Fluid shapes and relaxed styles emphasise this seasons calmer, softer theme.
These nudes have replaced the black and greys of the past as the new base colour.
TIPS ON GETTING THE LOOK
- This look can easily become a little old fashioned if done too delicately. Add some tough sandals in black or stone.
- Drapped dresses are the way to go to be bang on trend.
- Pick the right shade for your skin tone. Warm skins need to go more peachy whilst cool skins look better in soft pinks.
- Keep hair and makeup soft and subtle.
- Add glam accessories and statement neck pieces.

What some of my clients have said...
I enjoyed the session very much. It has made me think about wearing some new colours and confirmed that some of the ones I had chosen for myself suited me.
We really enjoyed our afternoon and both now feel more confident about choosing colours to suit. The make-up bit was fun too and we'll definitely give that a whirl now and again! Many thanks for your time and expertise.
Thanks for a great session. I can be seen clutching my swatches when ever I go shopping and I have had lots of compliments on the make-up in particular! We'll stay in touch. Thanks again.
I thoroughly enjoyed the session and had a successful shopping trip afterwards with my colour swatches, bought a purple dress and a hot pink chiffon top. I really like the make up products. Thanks very much for all the advice and make up tips.
I really enjoyed the colour session. I bought a few bits and pieces on Saturday, wearing a top to-day from my colour range and three people have said to me I look well and I they like the top I am wearing (Turquoise).....fab! I feel released from always choosing black clothes..... Christmas party dress is going to be very different this year!!!
Deirdre and I had an absolute ball last Friday...we really enjoyed our afternoon with you. You should have been a fly on the wall the following day as we navigated our way through George St and Princes St trying to find our colours. What a laugh...
I really enjoyed getting my colours done – it definitely makes you feel more confident about which colours suit you.
Just a wee note to say thanks for a great afternoon on Saturday, I really enjoyed the session. I read through the book last night and plan to go through my wardrobe over the next week, I am even wearing some colour at work today!!
Thanks again, I really enjoyed the consulation and am really excited about going shopping.
Yes, yesterday was great. I had a good fun. Going shopping today with new pallette.
Thanks Judith - I had a great time! I had my chart open the whole time shopping and bought scarves and vest tops in my colours - it actually made shopping easier and gave me the confidence to buy things that I would never normally!

Hey ladies, I thought I would share my news with you all. When I attended the CMB annual conference last week in London I picked up the award for the most successful CMB Image Consultant in Scotland. I am so please and would like to thank all of you who have supported me in building up my business over the last 18 months. I was really delighted to recieve the award and the conference was absolutely fantastic.
There were over 150 consultants at the conference who came from as far as China, Sweden and South Africa. It was held in the gorgeous Grand Connaught Rooms near Covent Garden.
I attended some fabulous workshops in the morning on building a capsule ward
robe, presenting skills and marketing for your business. We all then enjoyed networking and catching up at the awards lunch. In the afternoon former president of IFIC and Life Coach Sue Donnelly gave a presentation on connecting with others through colour which was extremely insightful!
My absolute favourite, Tony Glenville the Creative Director at London College of Fashion, presented his first hand account of all the seasons forthcoming trends from the fashion capitals of the world. I loved it.
It was then a quick glass of champagne,more gossiping and then I headed straight to the shops to bag myself some London clobber!

Just want to say that the workshosp was brilliant. It was just what the three of us needed and we were babbling excitedly about it for the net few hours over dinner. It has most definitely been a year of finding the true me and letting her come out and the workshop has added even more to the mix. I hadnt realised how much i had been holding back my personality....! Loads of people have noticed a difference already and I'm feeling so much more like the real me is finally being seen. And that's before I've even had the chance to go mental in Armstrongs!! Just wait world! Thanks you so so much! You're brilliant at what you do!

Just wanted to say that Linda and I thoroughly enjoyed our Make-Up Lesson.It was nice to learn new techniques in applying make-up and in what order to apply them !I usually go for the same eye colours but now feel bold enough to try new shades and blend them in.We felt all glam as we left
I had a really good time and felt I learnt quite a lot. It was nice that it was such a relaxed atmosphere and you made everyone feel very comfortable experimenting in front of each other.
Thanks for your email. We thoroughly enjoyed our make up lesson and I am starting to wear more make up and more often than before, ie, I am less scared and a bit more confident now! - so thank you very much.

ME AT LONDON FASHION WEEK!
Monday, 1 March 2010
I was lucky enough to make it down to London Fashion week last Friday and had such a fabulous day. The Catwalk and the shopping was fantastic. I saw 4 shows, Candy Rock - Light airy with accents of pastels; Swallows and Amazons - luxurious layers, ruffels and textures; Vintage Glamour and Betty Jackson's Spring/Summer collection - warm and feminine flower prints, lace trims, momochrome, steel greys, navy soft silks and draped jersey dresses. Good news girls, the heels on the shoes were all smaller than of late so it looks like finally we shall be able to strut our stuff this season and beyond in shoes that don't kill our feet! he he. Hair was classy and quitely understated, make up was statement lips and purple eyes. As I was in the front row (thank you CMB!!) I managed to get you all some photo's and video footage so take a look and be inspired.
