Can you belong to two seasons? đ
Margaret Qualley is the perfect example of somebody with a cool undertone. But what is less clear is her chroma, how bright vs soft she appears. For this reason, it is a hard choice between Cool Winter (cool & bright) and Cool Summer (cool & muted).
People like Margaret who sit closely between seasons will always lean towards one more than the other, but I always find it important to note that close call to help when picking outfits, makeup and hair colours. For example, Margaret would want to avoid some of the brighter, high contrast looks that some other winters may wear and she can also borrow some colours from Cool Summer, provided she adds a little contrast in through other clothing items of makeup.
Do you sit closely between two seasons?

Thereâs so many newbies on this page, so I thought we could revisit what colour analysis actually is and how we determine your season.

@pantone has just announced their 2025 colour of the year and you may be surprise to learn that it is brown! Specifically a shade of brown called #mochamousse
This colour will be gorgeous on an Autumn but if you donât belong to this season, you wonât miss out! Here are some alternatives for the other three seasons đ

I am often asked about dressing for the weather season or time of year when it doesnât match the colour season you belong to. My answer is always that it may not be possible to give the exact effect, but you can always make a swap with a colour in your palette.
Here are my suggestions for the red and green Christmas vibes for each season đ

Pamela Anderson has been amazing to watch over the last few years. I love how she is embracing the no-makeup look, even on red carpets which is something we so rarely see.
When trying to decide her colour season I was thrown by discovering that she is a natural brunette, but the colours that look best on her were just so clear.
To be able to pull off bleach blonde hair, thereâs only two seasons that come to mind. To decide between the two, you need to decide whether she leans more warm or cool.
I found that the cooler colours were slightly better for her and she also does well with a bit of dustiness in her look.
If youâve gotten this far and youâre saying Light Summer, youâd be right! Pamela is a Light Summer who looks best in light, neutral and slightly muted colours.
Now that we see her in her natural form so often, she is really embracing the lighter colours as they so clearly match her natural features. This is what colour analysis is all about!

This is one of the most common misconceptions in colour analysis.
Tanned doesnât always = Warm
Fair doesnât always = Cool
Itâs important to remember that there are warm, neutral and cool undertones and that things are not always as they seem on the surface in colour analysis.

The Neutral Aesthetic đŞ
Does it suit everyone? The answer may not be what you want to hearâŚ
The neutral aesthetic is amazing for those with low-medium contrast and a more muted appearance as it mimics their features well. For those with a higher contrast it can be very draining and so itâs ideally not a look that everyone can wear.
