Glow In Yellow

I know Sesame Street's Big Bird isn’t what you have in mind. But there is a shade of yellow that will flatter you.

1) Choose the Right Shade

To determine which yellow shade is most appropriate for your hair and skin tone, experiment with different shades of yellow fabric by holding them up to your face. Stand in front of the mirror, close your eyes and then open them. What was the first thing you noticed? Was it your face or the colour? If it was your face, then you have found your correct shade. If not, try again with one of the other shades.













2) Wear Yellow Accessories
If you can't find a shade of yellow you are comfortable with as an outfit but you still want to take part in the yellow trend, try incorporating a splash of yellow. Add a yellow handbag or yellow shoes. Yellow accessories can give your wardrobe a fresh, upbeat look without overpowering you with colour.



3) Wear Yellow Prints

If yellow tends to be unflattering on you, try choosing an eye catching print that has yellow mixed with colours that are more flattering to your hair and skin. Be sure to choose a print that will coordinate with some of the wardrobe items you already have. If you want to make a statement, pick a striking yellow and pair it with hot pinks, chilly reds, navy blues, periwinkles, etc. You will definitely make heads turn!
