My inclination was to choose black but she showed me that the fuschia pink bolero really made a difference - it lifted the whole outfit and flattered my skin. When I saw her again this weekend I thanked her because I don't think they often get feedback for the help that they give.alice chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16969805206040091585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922232.post-63495553164541766642010-03-25T14:06:29.051-05:002010-03-25T14:06:29.051-05:00Hi Poppy!

I wear black pants regularly because it's easy dressing for me, but I don't think my black pants are washing out my face. hee hee<br /><br />I get lots of compliments when I wear pink (any shade, pale to fuchsia), red or light blue. IMO, pink is flattering to everyone, even men. A man in a navy suit with a pink dress shirt is one of my favorite looks. <br /><br />I adore the green ensemble but it would make me look like I had just, or was about to, lose my lunch. Which is unfortunate since green is my favorite color. <br /><br />And that crap about black being slimming? Maybe if you are only trying to slim away 5 pounds or standing in front of a black wall.Violethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12609573058587275879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922232.post-75879242005759737362010-03-25T10:51:54.841-05:002010-03-25T10:51:54.841-05:00I agree, but will admit to often wearing simple bl...I agree, but will admit to often wearing simple black (dresses and pants) with beautiful scarves, necklaces, sweaters in the colors that look great on me.

But I really like color - red, robins egg blue. No yellow or orange, though.<br /><br />I used to love navy blue (it felt like such a *preppy* Ralph Lauren color) until I saw a photo of myself wearing a navy blue sweater - my face looked ghastly, pale(r) than usual and washed out.Keethahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10391755322320140235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7922232.post-45111966213797374902010-03-25T10:02:31.704-05:002010-03-25T10:02:31.704-05:00In the summer, when I have a little color in my fa...In the summer, when I have a little color in my face?
