Does this color make me look fat..pale...dull.......

Does this color make me look fat...pale.....dull.....

I ask this question wondering, is there a particular color you will absolutely NOT wear?

White really washes me out and makes me look like a ghost but cream colors and soft yellows look good on me.

Really bright, coral type colors don't look very good on me either.

hugs,train

Since I am so pale, I look washed out....actually, I look like I just got out of the hospital.....in pale yellow, orange, pink & peach. I don't like how I look in lavender.

I will only wear white when it is a t-shirt and has a print of some sort on the front.

My wardrobe is basically blues, greens and black.

I read somewhere that not many people look good in bright whites or yellows. And that everyone should wear pinks next to their faces.

I prefer to wear dark colors on my bottom half, blues, greens or mainly black.

I love jewel colored blouses on the top. Emeralds,blacks, blues, purples,etc. I do wear light colored tops in the summer.

I am a red head, with quite a red complexion ( people have asked me if I am blushing), so I stay far, far away from red, especially bright red clothing, and bright pink and yellow.
I love green and blue, especially dark blue. When ever I wear something dark blue, people say how dark blue my eyes are.

I don't know...

I just gravitate to browns, khakis, and other shades of brown, did i just say that?....also pastelle colors....bright only when I absolutely have no choice in the matter. However, my dsister is getting me into brighter colors now when I see her wear something...I do not like green though...lime or some soft green maybe...I love reds though...okay gotta go rest and will check in later

i am really pale and always have been, the colors i wear the most are more neutral colors if you wear these colors they make you look a little darker, also in my opinion red looks good on almost everybody no matter what the skin tone is.

I still wear a lot of navy year round, shorts and capris in the summer. My summer tops are light colors, creams, yellows, pinks. I still don't look good in white. My hair is very dark brown so the darker colors compliment me more. I wear a lot of burgundy, brown and hunter green in the wintertime.

Though I don't have a whole lot of it, people tell me I look good in red.

hugs, train

I will not wear orange. Brown is not a good color for me, black isn't either.

I wear pinks, fushia, turquoise, aqua, some shades of yellow, red, blues, some greens, white. I am a summer person according to my hair color, eye color and skin color.

I look good in the warmer tones, browns so tend to head in that direction

I refuse to wear yellow or off white, makes me look pale and sallow.
Orange is another colour I don't wear, does nothing for me.
