Warm, dark, and muted autumn styles. What colors suit you?

Does the autumn beauty type evoke associations with red hair, green eyes, and freckles? That's a good bet, although there are also autumn looks like Jessica Alba, Jennifer Lopez, Beyoncé, Emma Stone, and Natalie Portman, among others, who deviate somewhat from the typical associations. So what characterizes the autumn color type?

It belongs to the warmer beauty varieties, meaning those that look better in gold than silver. There are three subtypes of autumn: muted, dark, and warm.

Muted autumn – characteristic features

The most recognizable feature is the lack of stark contrasts. Muted autumn is a type of beauty in which skin, hair, and eye color can all be similar in shade , creating a harmonious, subdued whole. People with this type often have auburn, brown, or slightly blond hair. Characteristically, eye color can be difficult to pinpoint—ranging from gray-green or gray-blue to light brown or hazel.

Muted autumn styling

Sweaters , turtlenecks , and blouses in calm, muted tones will complement subtle skin, hair, and eye shades perfectly. These colors often evoke nature (e.g., plum, olive), so you can choose color combinations found in our natural environment, such as muted green and raspberry, brown and burgundy, navy blue and muted beige. Of course, you can allow yourself to wear colors outside of this color range in your outfits, but use them in the lower parts of your wardrobe.

What to avoid with the dark autumn beauty type?

Autumn colors in a bold version, if they are too bright (e.g. neons), too light (e.g. pastels) or too cold, can make you look older, emphasize dark circles under the eyes and highlight redness of the skin.

Dark autumn styling

Deep autumn outfits should be bold and saturated, but not too contrasting. Women with this complexion will look great in sweaters and turtlenecks or dresses in burgundy, navy blue, bottle green, and dark purple. These colors are just as elegant as black, a great alternative, and, moreover, they're not as popular, making any outfit interesting.

PRO TIP: To enhance these colors, add brown, which will complement them perfectly and make them stand out even better.
