What Makes True Spring Unique
True Spring is the quintessential warm, bright season. If you're a True Spring, your natural coloring has warm undertones with clear, vibrant characteristics. Think golden sunshine, fresh flowers, and the bright optimism of spring.
True Springs often have:
- Golden or strawberry blonde, warm brown, or auburn hair
- Clear, bright eyes (blue, green, turquoise, or warm hazel)
- Warm, peachy, or golden skin with a healthy glow
- Often freckles with warm undertones
The True Spring Color Palette
Your Best Neutrals
Forget black and gray—your neutrals are warm and inviting:
- Warm ivory (not pure white)
- Camel and warm tan
- Warm beige
- Light warm brown
- Navy (warmer navy, not icy)
Your Signature Colors
These are the colors that make True Springs absolutely glow:
- Coral - Your perfect "pop of color"
- Warm turquoise - Like Caribbean waters
- Bright golden yellow - Sunshine personified
- Warm peach - Universally flattering on you
- Clear aqua - Fresh and vibrant

Your Best Reds
Not all reds are created equal. Your reds are:
- Tomato red - Warm with orange undertones
- Poppy red - Bright and clear
- Coral red - The safest choice
Avoid: Blue-based reds, burgundy, and wine colors.
Your Blues
Yes, you can wear blue! But choose carefully:
- Clear turquoise
- Warm periwinkle
- Bright teal
Avoid: Icy blues, gray-blues, and navy that's too dark.
Colors to Avoid
These colors will make you look washed out or sallow:
- Black - Too harsh; use dark warm brown instead
- Pure white - Use ivory or cream instead
- Burgundy and wine - Too cool and muted
- Dusty or muted pastels - You need clarity
