Have you ever done one of those quizzes that tells you what color season you are? I’m a Winter person. That’s right!  I’m a cool tone icy blue, purple, teal, green and turquoise kind of girl. My mom, on the other hand is totally in the autumn camp. She looks great in reds oranges, golds and bronze tones.  Even though I don’t look good in autumnal colors, I love EATING autumnal colors. Here’s proof with a little roundup.

Orange, yellow, browns with a few little hints of green.

Fall! You’re here. So let’s get acquainted with your color scheme.
