And I can't wear any shade of green (except teal) next to my face. Somehow my complexion just draws up that green, and then I look like I'm sick and ready to throw up. It's not a good color on me at all...next to my face. I don't even own any green clothes. LOL
I actually look good in a true jade or emerald green but realized last St. Patrick's Day that I didn't own anything green so I remedied that.
Fine, but they could be sending a negative message out to the general public.
But yeah, let's not bother them with such unimportant matters, right?
That's the dumbest thing I've ever read.
What message, exactly, would I be sending out by wearing a color that someone else didn't think looked good on me? Other than I'm going to wear what I like and I don't give a crap what anyone else thinks?
Khaki/oatmeal/beige looks terrible on just about everyone.
Well, no. I can wear this color quite well. It is not my fave, you understand. But for awhile in the late 1980s into the early nineties, it was practically the only color I could find that qualified as my Color Me Beautiful colors. Wearing so much of it pushed me out of that confining space, actually. But, honestly, I looked pretty good in the color.

In all fairness, it's a color that works for me, as well. I'm typically considered in the "cool" range, but the beige colors always worked just fine for me.
I had my colors done years ago in New York and was told I should wear jewel tones. When I do I always get compliments. But I also get a lot when I wear peach. I will never wear brown, yellow, mustard or lime green. I wear a lot of black in the cooler months.
Sounds like you and I have similar skin tones. I used to have this emerald green sweater that, when I wore it, people would actually stop me and tell me that I had beautiful eyes. It just made my eyes pop and flattered my skin tone (and I should probably find something else that color, just for the validation. )
I've been looking through some of the winter sales in the past few weeks, and I've really noticed how this season's color palettes are Not For Me. Aside from black and navy, which I can pull off, there haven't really been a lot of items I've seen that are in shades that I must own.
