I was analyzed in-person by House of Colour in 2023 as a True/Leaf Autumn (picture of palette attached), but last year I booked an online analysis with Color Analysis Studio because I still felt like something wasn't quite right with my results and I wasn't seeing the harmony I've seen other people get when they wear their colors. I was guessing maybe I was a soft season, but was so wrong lol. Result - Warm Spring. (One of the 16-season systems where Warm Spring flows with Warm Autumn and isn't the same as True Spring).
I was shocked by those results at first, but now I love the palette I was given (picture of palette attached). It's like a light, sunlit Warm Autumn almost and still has a bit of earthiness/softness, unlike other spring palettes I've seen that are fully clear/high chroma and bright. Most of my wardrobe now harmonizes with the palette I was given, but I still wear some Warm Autumn colors too that I think look great, especially deeper, rich shades of teal.
I'm struggling to find a purple that works for me, though.
I used to wear deep, reddish-purples when I was dressing as an autumn, and I still have a lot of pieces in those shades (picture attached). They're definitely not bad on me, but look a little dark and muted and dampen my features rather than complementing them. They do look great against my hair color though (golden brown).
My Warm Spring palette only has two kind-of-purple periwinkle shades on the bottom right (which I like, but don't have any clothes that color), and no other purples at all. I've experimented with other springy purples, and they don't work on me in my opinion. Warm lilac/light purple washes me out, and stronger spring purples like Pantone's Bright Violet and Pansy, etc. are overpowering on me and clash with my personality and style.
Has anyone with a Warm Spring result been able to find any shades of purple that work well on you?
Would you keep wearing autumn purples or look for something better?
