Your Style #148 - January 2024

Hygge Style

There's not really an easy translation for this Danish word but it's thought that it may have the same meaning as the word 'to hug'.

In any case it encapsulates and 'embraces' an entire way of life celebrating the joy of simple pleasures based around home and family. Taking care of yourself and your loved ones! 

Hygge style is part of Danish culture year round but it's the long stretch of Winter when the rest of us are ready to capture the same cosyness and warmth in our own homes and our hearts!

Love the skin you're in! 

Not feeling the joy? You can learn to love the skin you're in! Until you do it's impossible to fully care and extend that warm glow of love to others.

When you look in the mirror are you over-critical of the way you look? If people compliment you, do you believe them? The relationship we have with ourselves can be very confusing!

I'm not a psychologist so I'm certainly not going to try to explain or even complicate it - just someone who has experienced self-doubt too!

Your Color Analysis pics! The COOL Color Family

After always having beautiful dark shiny hair Dana was struggling with the transition to gray. Recognizing that her skin tone was changing tone too she tried highlights to blend the 'demarcation' line but they were taking on an orange tint! A little color advice and she is more than ready to happily complete the transition to a stunning natural silver gray. 

Always interesting when I hear that your best colors are the ones you wore 'way back when - obviously completely instinctive before 'fashion' took over! 

She says "First of all, WOW!  I'm so impressed with your in-depth and descriptive analysis. This is far more information than I ever expected (though I love EVERY bit of what you sent) and I would have never in a million years guessed I am COOL! Very interesting! All of the colors you sent are what I used to wear "way back when," except for the silver jewelry.  I have always loved pink (fav color here) and have worn a lot of pink until recent years.  However, I have never worn silver jewelry and I am a true lover of everything "gold. "  I suppose I need to check out some silver.  

When I scan my closet I see my wardrobe has shifted to many warm colors, similar to what you showed as an Autumn palette. Therein lies a lot of the problem I was speaking about when I stated my makeup seemed "off" (it was my makeup and clothes coloring, too!). I have always thought my undertone was slightly yellow, and having dark hair would give me a warm undertone. Who knew!

I'm going to get back to you next week after I do some more thinking about the color analysis.  I have read and looked at your information several times.  

Wow!  You're a true artist.  Thank you, Pamela. Thank you very much!  I'm so excited to bring the correct colors back to my wardrobe and freshen up my look!
