Q. How to know what color clothing is best for you? And what colors to stay
away from?

Alison: This largely depends on skin tone and hair color. This can be figured out a bit through trial and error. A person with very pale skin should avoid pastels. I find that many blondes look great in a range of blues and pinks while dark and olive skin tones look enhanced in jewel tones like purple, burgundy and deep greens and generally don’t look washed out in browns like some of us.
