True Summer neutrals
Neutrals hold a wardrobe together. Choose a pale, a middle and a deeper anchor so outfits have a useful range.
Blue-based rose, misty blue and cool plum balance coolness with a softened finish. Cool grays can hold a wardrobe together without stark black-and-white contrast.
Pale, middle and deep anchors
Choose cool, medium-light, soft 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 softer palette, try colors of a similar depth together before adding a strong contrast.
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.
