the perfect book for me!

As a woman who has been wearing jeans and a black t-shirt every day for over 10 years, I can honestly say that this book is helping me change my life. Fashion has never come naturally for me and always seemed like something that would take way too much effort, yet I have always found myself jealous of stylish looking women and the attention that they get. This book is absolutely perfect for someone like me, or anyone who doesn't have a lot of time to devote to fashion magazines and shopping. I have never been confident enough to wear colors, I mean really WEAR COLORS, and with figuring out my color type I am so excited about the changes in the way I can feel by not wearing black every day. Black has been a safety net for me and I am just now realizing this. And who would have thought peach and salmon would look good on me? I did the book's suggested exercise- holding up different colored fabrics to my face in natural light, I saw something that I had never seen before. Once you start paying attention to the effect a color can have on your skin and eyes and hair, it is like you have the ability to work magic all the sudden. I instantly looked healthier with the new colors and I am amazed, I can't believe I have missed out on this for so long, but better late than never!!! I bought the book for the color theories but I am excited about the body shape section, too. It never occurred to me that I could use clothing to accentuate myself instead of just always wishing I had a different body. In fact one of the most special things I read in the book said that they would never recommend to anyone that they use surgery to change their look- the writers believe in the uniqueness of all women and how to bring out your best, and work with what you have been given. I just think that is such an important concept in this day and age when it seems like everyone is striving to look like the "ideal". I am all about this book. I know it could help other women like me. But I agree with some other reviewers that if you already have a good sense of fashion, this might seem like beginner stuff to you. But for me? Life-changing!!! :-)

Color Me Confident - Wonderful Resource

I first used this book two years ago, after checking it out from the local library. Right away I knew I'd found a great resource. It was definitely inspiring to finally know (not just guess) what colors "work" for me and it opened up several new color options I had not considered before. Great book!

Color Me Confident

Great book...all kinds of useful info. I use it a lot for finding colors that complement me.

Amazing

This book has taught me how to totally "work" my natural coloring. I never read Color Me Beautiful aside from a quick flip-through at the library years ago-- I think I was kind of put off because I fell into the "Winter" category but so did a LOT of colorings that were radically different than mine, and trying to weed out which of the winter recommendations applied to me was difficult. This book makes it much more obvious which specific coloring you are. What I _really_ love about this book is that it not only tells you which colors are best for you, but also gives you LOTS of suggestions on combining your colors that I had never thought of before. I skeptically tried out some of the color combinations in department stores and was truly surprised by how good they looked. This book had me trying on colors I had previously passed over with great results. I even changed out my lipstick shades and blush from warm to cool shades and it made my eye color pop and I look a lot more vibrant. The dressing-for-your-body type was also helpful for me as well as dressing for your style (there were more great color combination recommendations there, too). I cleaned out my closet of clothes that were in colors that don't suit me and had no regrets. I recommend that you get this book, take note of the suggestions and put aside your personal opinions "oh that won't work on me." Get yourself to a department store and try things on in the colors and combinations they recommend. You'll be surprised! 5 stars!

LOVE IT

I am having so much fun with this book. I remembered the Color Me Beautiful from when I was a kid and was excited to see an updated version (mine got smuggled in from England!) I think it is so helpful to narrow down colors to buy plus think about ones body and face shape and clothing style. This can make shopping more enjoyable and help you feel confident and lovely in what you are wearing.
