Light Summer

Light Summer colors

Choose colors by their temperature, depth and clarity. A family name such as blue or pink covers many different shades.

Powder blue, pale rose and light lavender form gentle combinations. Favor coolness without turning every outfit icy or highly contrasted.

Colors to begin with

Choose cool-neutral, light, gently soft tones.

A practical rule

Use the actual chip as a starting point and compare the fabric in daylight. A screen hex is not a fabric color guarantee.

For this palette, begin with moderate contrast and adjust the size of the accent.

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.
