Your best colors can make your life much easier: you can buy more colors, not just black or brown, you can spend less time shopping, and you can create fabulous and matching outfits.
Only colors can’t create a great style, but it’s essential to know which shades complement your overall look. So the seasonal color analysis system could be a great friend for you as well.
What do the seasonal color palettes mean?
As nature creates beautiful and harmonic colors, people also have a type of coloring that is most similar to one of these seasonal palettes. People’s palettes appear on their faces as a combination of the colors of the hair, eyes and skin tone.
How to find your best colors?
First, you have to find your primary season.
Close your eyes for some seconds. When you open your eyes, what characteristic you notice first in the mirror?
Do you have light blonde hair, delicate eyes, and peachy skin? – Spring
Do you have dark hair, dark or bright eyes, and ivory or dark skin? – Winter
Do you have warm brown hair, warm eyes, and a golden lighter or deeper skin tone? – Autumn
Do you have ‘mousy’ hair, grayish-colored eyes, and rosy or deeper but ashy skin? – Summer
Springs and Autumns are so-called the warm seasons, while Winters and Summers are cool so that the best colors can also be warm or cool.
Warm colors have a yellow, gold, or reddish undertone, for example, brown, olive green, khaki, mustard.
Cool colors have a blue, purple or gray undertone, for example, purple, gray-blue, or pink.
When you wear your perfect colors, you look handsome and vital. Your skin and hair are full of life and your eyes shine. Everybody notice you not your clothes.
However, when you wear a wrong color, your hair and skin look grayish or yellowish and your eyes dull. It seems that your body and head live a separate life.

How can you color analyze yourself?
I suggest asking your girlfriend/wife or one of your friends to help you with testing your colors.
1. Try to collect the following colors are made from textiles – any kind of, so it could be a shirt, a scarf or a towel, in the last resort a piece of paper:
2. Find a well-lighted place and put a mirror in front of you. And the fun part begins 🙂
3. Test the collected colors next to your face – which is best for you? If you have cool characteristics, warm colors will sallow your face, but if your dominant colors are warm, cool tones will make you grayish.
4. Now, you know your dominant seasonal palette, but here is a chart for a better decision:
After you find out your dominant season, you can easily create a great and colorful wardrobe.

I agree with you that every man is paying so much attention and putting in so much effort every day to look their best. I agree that trying new shades is important to look good, and I liked all the color combinations for all seasons.
Why aren’t there any people of color on this colo analysis chart?
Is this color theory chart whites only?
You are right; I updated the photo. However, in the description of each season, I listed deeper skin tones as well.
