3.0 out of 5 stars review of "Color Me Beautiful", 24 Aug 2002
By A Customer
I bought this book recently, and, despite the glowing reviews from others, I believe that five stars is an excessive amount of praise. In its favour, the season colour guide is excellent, and this alone justifies the three stars that I have awarded. However, I found the body proportion guidelines confusing, and some of the style advice a little dated, especially the fashion personality section. Carol Spenser's book is far superior in this regard, although this book has the edge on the colour section, and a hybrid of both books would constitute my ideal style guide. As a student, I felt I was younger than the target audience, but this book is ideal for anyone requiring colour analysis on a budget.

4.0 out of 5 stars The original and still the best, 9 Aug 1998
By A Customer
There was a time when women wore whatever the designers decreed. If pure white was popular one season, everyone wore pure white. Then came Color Me Beautiful. Women learned which colours suited their personal colouring and which did not. Consumer pressure forced designers to provide a greater range of colours, and incidentally stripped designers of much of their dictatorial powers.

Color Me Beautiful has made women more confident in choosing their clothing and makeup, and is the first step for most women who are interested in making their clothes work for them.

Sadly, it's not perfect. The colour groupings work very well for blonde and brunette Caucasian women, light-skinned women of African descent, and women of eastern Asian descent, but don't work very well for light-skinned redheaded Caucasian women, dark-skinned women of African descent, native North Americans, and women whose ancestors are from South Asia, the Pacific or parts of the Middle East. The sections ! on makeup and clothing style are dated (inevitably, of course), and much of the advice (never go out of the house without earrings, for example) is specific to Caucasian United States culture.

If, however, you're interested in colour matching, this book is the first and best step. Invest in it before you get your colours done by a professional; you may find you don't need to spend the extra money.

5.0 out of 5 stars You Can Feel Confident in Your Style Choices, 11 Jul 1999
By A Customer
I read this book in 1983 and it literally changed the way I think. I had understood the concept of color, but never applied color analysis to skin tone -- only hair and eyes. After reading this book, I determined my seasonal palette and have been faithful to it since.

It's nice to know I look good, and decisions have been simplified. Wardrobing gets easy with Carole Jackson's help.
