FASHIONS IN THE FIELD
Criteria: Autumn Colours - Autumn's golden tones have arrived for fashion in perfect time.
Darker tones don't have to be dull.
Rich navy, plums, fuchsia and olive are the perfect choices for the Autumn race season.
Choose a colour that suits your skin tone and hair.
This is as easy as just holding different colours under your chin.
If it suits you it will make you smile, if it doesn't you will look pale.
This is the same for jewellery, both silver and gold can look cheap if they clash with your skin tone.
Generally, if you suit autumn tones of brown, oranges and greens, then gold works well.
If you can carry off blues, pinks and reds then silver might be the go for you.
Of course black is always stunning and you can add pops of colour with your accessories.
