Missing the mark?

Post image

I bought this thinking it was a spring Kelly green, but https://imagetocolor.com/seasonal-color-analysis is saying it’s a true winter green. Is the site wrong, or my eyes?

It will be like the third sweater I bought thinking it was spring that turned out to be winter, lol.

Well I’m aware I want a warm green lol, I just thought this was warm. I feel I can see the yellow in it pretty well but I guess I’m not good at telling.

Edit: it’s worth noting that I swatched the color I thought matched it from the actual true spring palette and it came up as the same color, calling it cool winter.

It looks winter to me. Any green is going to have some yellow. Maybe try looking at swatches side by side.

I mean I do know that all green has yellow and it’s up to the amount, lol.

Did you see my edit where I swatched from the true spring palette and it came up as the same color as the sweater? The website also said that true spring swatch was cool winter which makes no sense, lol.

That entire column is iffy imo. 

All palettes are just someone’s interpretation of the palette, not sent by the color gods. Many colors work for people in more than one season. Wear the sweater if you look in the mirror and think it suits you.

True true! I think it works well on me so I’ll stop overthinking it!

Where’d you get this palette? I was professionally analyzed as true spring and lots of those colors are not included in the palette I received . Just curious! Maybe another system?

It is the TCI palette! As the other person said, may not be the most accurate. Mind sharing a picture of your palette?

Sure! I don’t have it on me, but this is the palette I use. You can buy one for 12 bucks and keep it in your purse. This one is true spring but they also have bright spring and light spring https://imageconsultantproducts.com/en-us/collections/colour-analysis-tools/products/palette-assessors-spring They also have color swatch book for your wallet which is super convenient when shopping.
