One color for certain types

Pantone’s sympathetic yellow-green has already graced the outfits of the British Queen Elizabeth II and is also a symbol of the green lifestyle, which has long since replaced the somewhat old-fashioned eco-image. But watch out, Greenery should be treated with caution. Style experts suggest rosier skin types to opt for more bluish tones, such as turquoise and petrol tones, to appear brighter and fresher. The yellowish color of the year is more suitable for golden skin types.
