For the woman who wants to look professional, well-dressed and comfortable all week long but is often bewildered by the vast array of designs and colors available to her, this comprehensive wardrobe guide provides a wealth of practical answers to the perennial question, "what to wear?" Using small silhouetted figures, it presents page after page of fashion options, each in a variety of well-coordinated color combinations. Acclaimed clothing designer Jeanne Allen explains why certain colors work together, suggests color proportions for each outfit, and offers essential tips on accessories such as jewelry, belts, and scarves. Also included are ideas for more casual outfits that go beyond the office. Eschewing rigid dressing for success formulas, Dressing with Color will prove to any woman that her wardrobe combinations can be as flexible and interesting as she is.

This review is from: Dressing With Color: The Designer's Guide to Over 1,000 Color Combinations (Paperback)
This book takes you through pages of different base colors of skirts or pants and then adds a second set of colors as a shirt, to compare your color preferences. My own preferences in color combination was interesting. There were combinations I thought I would have liked and didn't, and vice versa. If you are a color diva you won't need this book. If you're color challenged like me, you'll keep it as a reference for breaking out of your basic wardrobe, and for adding jewelry, scarves, layers, etc.
