Since having my colours done two years ago, my entire outlook on shopping and makeup has changed. I learned that black wasn’t a colour I should wear near my face, as with my colouring it has a ‘draining’ effect. I know- I’m from Melbourne, we love black!
That said, you are given plenty of options about what you can wear, and in my case for darker shades it’s charcoal and navy. So out with the black blazers, and in with navy, only, I haven’t found one that I liked for the past two years.
You might recall I was out at DFO Essendon last week (best bargain shopping in Melbourne) and while I was there to work, I managed a sneaky tour of the centre and picked up some ridiculous bargains, this blazer being one of them. Sportscraft is an established Australian label that while erring on the conservative side, do classics like a trench, merino sweater or wool blazer to perfection.
Would you like to know more about having your colours done?
What I’m wearing:
Blazer: Sportscraft
Silk tank: Feathers
Denim: Goldsign
Boots: Steven Madden ‘Bailen’ leather boots
Bag: David Lawrence
Necklace: Ottoman Treasures
Bangle: Bought it in New York last year
Watch: Longines

Thank you <3
I was the same, I had a general idea and most of the time got it right, but there were a couple of simple things I learned that really changed things. I’ll do a blog post about it 🙂
Thanks Genevieve!

Love the blazer! Navy is such a great alternative to darker neutrals!
I’d love to hear more about getting colours done. usually i’m just quite intuitive about what colours i pick. I think over the years I’ve learned that some colours make me look and feel better.. whilst others totally drain me and can even make me look sickly. But it would be great to learn more!
Love your outfit!
