I have dark brown-orange eyes, a medium-beige skin tone, and I am medium-high contrast. I have dark brown hair with only a hint of red and which is now 50-percent gray. I don’t look like a Glorious Spring (CMAS system). I’m glad you trusted your own eye and are now satisfied.

And you are especially fortunate that you have found your color home without having to pay big $$$.

But that doesn’t mean that’s the only trick they have up their sleeves. Sure, Dark Autumn and Dark Winter go deeper than other seasons. The names of the seasons are just that, names, helpful ways to categorize the seasons. When I got my prescription sunglasses with dark brown lenses this summer, my first thought was, “Whoa, the entire world is Dark Autumn when I look through these.” The colors can be bright or even light, but there is always that touch of brown. What Dark Autumn colors seem to have in common to me, and what I can see in myself, despite my apparent lightness, is that it is like all of the colors just have a touch of Burnt Umber in them. (Blog post is in Russian, but you can run it through Google Translate.) Many seem to think that the only way the Dark Autumn palette can look in clothes is like this image from Sabira’s blog post, representing the dark colors in DA:īut this set is no less Dark Autumn than the one above: I was reminded by this the other day, when Color Harmony posted a blog post breaking down the Dark Autumn palette into groups–groups of color and then light/soft/dark/bright. (These palettes are the Invent Your Image palettes.) You can see how wide the range is for Dark Autumn and Dark Winter in comparison: The light-to-dark range in these palettes isn’t very dark, and you need to have a person who truly cannot handle a wide range of depth–this is especially true with Light Spring. I do think that with the Light seasons, they do tend to look more like you imagine. Out of the women and men I’ve seen who have gone to analysts and come back as Dark Autumns, you’ll find everyone from natural blondes to the darkest brunettes. I wouldn’t fit into the first image, and who knows if these women are even Dark Autumns at all.
