Most of us will agree that she looks better on the right, where she is wearing her best clothing and makeup colors. But why?

The answer is color harmony! Specifically, there is a system that categorizes everyone into one of twelve “color seasons.” When you find your season, you find all the colors that harmonize with your skin tone.

I hope you have now got the point that your clothing color matters. Obviously, you will now want to know how to find your color palette. Unfortunately, this is a massive topic (which is why I avoided writing about it until now), so I hope this suffices as a teaser, and I will come back to this topic later 😛

In the meantime, I highly recommend these resources:
