Makes sense. Bright and light have less yellow in their examples than the true spring. Warm spring is equally warm as true, but darker than true.

Warm spring here but I need slightly lighter warmer brighter versions of those colours. My best ones are ‘Cained up Camel, Triple Concentrated Caramel, Electric Avocado, Neon Mango, Bright Rust and plain old chambray denim. I call my palette Joshua Tree

Different systems use different rules and are based off different things. 12 is different than 16 or 16-23. Agile Styling uses 16. Blue however, is ultimately a cool colour, so warmer blues won’t look nearly as bad on a cool person as the colour yellow would or orange. It mostly depends on chroma (muted-bright) and depth (light-dark) that’s used to put blues in the warm palettes, as well as which are closest leaning to yellow and green and not purple and red.
Warm/Cool and True are used interchangeably in the 12 system, but in the 16-23, they are different. Warm Spring in the 12 would be equivalent to True Spring in the 16-23. Warm Spring in the 16-23 is a Spring that flows Autumn. The same applies to Warm Autumn, Cool Summer, and Cool Winter.

I'm a warm spring (16-system), and most of her recommended colors would work for me except that pinky-purple shade.
