Bright Winter

Bright Winter neutrals

Neutrals hold a wardrobe together. Choose a pale, a middle and a deeper anchor so outfits have a useful range.

Vivid pink, brilliant blue and clear emerald bring sharp color definition. Give a bright accent a quiet background instead of muting the accent itself.

Pale, middle and deep anchors

Choose cool-neutral, medium, bright tones.

A practical rule

A neutral need not be beige. A low-chroma blue, green or plum can work as an understated anchor.

For this clearer palette, let a distinct accent stand beside a simple neutral.

Try it with what you own

Choose one item from your wardrobe or makeup kit. Compare it with a chip, then look at the actual item in neutral daylight. Keep notes about combinations you enjoy.
