The Little Black Dress is in the staple of every woman's wardrobe since time began!

Visit any office and look around you. Most people will be weraing black.

Some people look great in black, others look terrible. So what type of person suits black?

If you are a Winter, you are very lucky! You can wear black very well, what type of combinations with other colours will depend on how close to your face will differ from Winter to Winter and it will change as you get older, but Black is safe for you.

What about the rest of us? I used to wear a lot of black before I understood colour, in fact my wardrobe was full of it as I though it went with everything! Well, I was wrong. I was told that I was an Autumn I was very upset as I did not want to wear those "Cow Pat" colours! I love Black, Purples, Dark Greens, Blue Eyeshadow and my Pink Lipstick and I did not want any body telling me otherwise!!

As I had my colours done just before I my training to become an Image Consultant, I had to get it right. I experimented with, horror of horrors, Dark Brown, Moss Green, Teal. I was really surprised at how well they worked for me. Oh well, you live and learn!

Six months later, I tried on some black clothes again. It was horrible! I looked old, tired and rather unwell. For years my main colour had been Black. From that day on I have never purchased any Black clothes - not even a pair of knickers!

If you are a Summer, you should not wear any black close to your face. Try using Navy, Grey or Burgandy instead of Black. This will be more flattering and will coordinate with your other seasonal colours.

Autumn or Spring? Black is an incredibly difficult colour for us wear. It doesn't coordinate with any of our other colours and will make you ill. Springs, use: Chocolate Brown, Bright Navy, Cinnamon, Copper. Autumns: Dark Brown, Olive and Moss Green, Teal and Kingfisher, Marine Navy, Purple, Chestnut

Go on - drop the Black. You will be amazed at how much better you look and the extra energy it will give you.

As for you Winters, we love you but also hate the fact that you look great in Black.
