Black is the most slimming colour so you’re told? Metro Boomin Live Fast June 23 2024 Shirt Now I’ve talked about that before here, but if you missed the memo, the reason why people think black is the most slimming is the simple logic: If light colours advance and make you look larger and dark colours recede so should make you look smaller. – what’s the darkest colour? Well black. But… if you look at another of the properties of colours which is the spectrum of intensity, if bright colours are advancing (larger) and muted colours more receding (slimming) what’s black? It’s BRIGHT – that’s right – as soon as you soften black it becomes grey (no longer black) and so (cue Beethoven’s 5th Symphony …da na na na naaaaaaa) black is ADVANCING and makes itself more apparent. Also, colours have visual weight – white is the lightest, and black the darkest – and so black feels HEAVY (particularly on someone who has light colouring it’s really noticeable). Black weighs you down, it can also make you appear shorter when wearing it on your top half and a lighter colour on your bottom half. So if muted colours are more slimming, then a darker muted colour will be more slimming that black, ergo… Does black go with everything? It’s a cool, deep and bright colour – so it goes well with other colours with those properties, but it really doesn’t look good with warm colours and muted colours, other colours look way better with those, it’s just that most people have gotten so used to seeing black with everything they don’t see how it clashes. Get my tips here on how to stop buying and wearing black when it’s not flattering for you. When you’re wearing colours that aren’t in harmony with your own colouring you’ll look more washed out, pale, tired and even jaundiced, as I discovered when I was 16 and bought myself a mustard yellow jumper (sweater). Every time I wore it people would ask me with concerned looks on their faces “are you feeling OK?” to which I always replied that I was find, and wondered to myself why they asked me that. When I learned about colours and how that mustard yellow colour was not in harmony with my cool colouring, it suddenly made sense and that jumper was donated to a home where it would be flattering to the wearer. If you’re ever in a store and the sales assistant says “you just need a bright lippy with that” then it’s a great indication that the colour is wearing you and less than flattering on you and should be avoided. These are the colours inherent in you – they are in your skin, your lips, your eyes, your hair and when you repeat those colours in your clothes and jewellery, you really do look amazing. And very rarely is black a signature colour! When doing a colour analysis one of the steps is to find from the generic palette of around 50 colours, the 15 that are your personal signature colours.

For Jill, who prefers to control and have more stability in her style, she’ll happily plan outfits ahead of time (sometimes even months ahead for big events). Metro Boomin Live Fast June 23 2024 Shirt Whilst people more like me (INTJ – or Intuitive types ) may find that they need more variety as they prefer to dress with their moods (and moods can change). I know that sometimes when I plan an outfit even the night before, I wake up in the morning and am no longer “feeling” that outfit so have to figure out a different outfit to wear for that day. For those of you who have a personality more similar to Jill’s (ESFJ, or any SJ – Sensing and Judging types) and as she says, they tend to prefer stability in their lives whilst SP (Sensing and Perceiving) may want much more variety in their lives. In fact, the SP types have brain patterning (according to Type and Brain researcher Dario Nardi) which he describes as the “tennis hop” pattern, where they are ready to go with the flow, whatever that direction may be and their style is often one that is ‘prepared’ for different circumstances, in a way that other types may never think about. Whilst the NP types (intuitive and perceiving) have a “Christmas Tree” brain patterning like the lights of a Christmas tree that are twinkling and so they see possibilities everywhere in their clothes and style and often can become overwhelmed easily, or find it almost impossible to let go of clothes (as there are still many possibilities they see and potential for each item), yet often the most stylish of them start to impose their own guidelines and criteria, some structure around their style to take some of that overwhelm away. In fact, Steve Jobs is an example of an NP type who wore a self-imposed “uniform” daily, and we see this as a way for him to remove one set of decisions as otherwise the endless possibilities of what to wear may have meant he’d never get on with the rest of his day. It allowed him to use his creative brain in a different space. When Jill is feeling certain and stable with her outfit and style, she then can focus on what is happening around her, and she can forget her outfit. Though she says there is an element of pure joy in putting outfits together, curating her outfit, and having stability and control over what’s in her wardrobe and how every outfit goes together.
