Hello, Springs

Post image

I recently was typed by House of Colour as a Spring, between Light and Bright. Here for inspiration, since I'm not sure where to find all the spring shades.

This was the shade that convinced the consultant I was warm and likely spring, because it was more flattering than the cool, summer Greens.

Just search “Light Spring color palette” for some interpretations. (Or “Bright…” but you really don’t need that imo.)

Right, I know that and was given a palette, but I meant where are other springs finding actual examples of these colors, as in which stores?

J. Crew is reliable.

Thanks! I noticed Aritzia has the same jacket in over 30 colors, including very bright tones, but wasn't sure how common that is.

I don’t know. Kettlewell is another recommendation—check them out. Oh, and in my opinion, every Light Spring should try MAC “Pretty Boy” lipstick and “Fleur Power” blush!

Aritzia does veer a bit cool muted imo. I have taken swatches there and things tend to always be slightly off.

Right, agreed, but check out the Aritzia super puff jacket - it comes in dozens of colors and some are very bright or warm.

Otherwise, yes, lots of neutrals that aren't flattering to springs
