COLOR! you look great in the bridesmaid dress color. bright, rich colors - no pastels. have a fun sunday. susan

Hi Susan, I didn't get an email from you, and I wonder why you don't have that www at the bottom of the posts :-? Thank you for your comments about my pics. I do feel much more relaxed than I did before. I am more comfortable now. You have me pegged with the BLACK clothes! Especially shirts and sweaters. I just feel good in black, it's not even about looking slimmer, I like it with my skin tone. But you are right I need to break out of that a bit, and I have been trying. I have purchased a few things in colors, but not so much the jewel tones like you said. I will keep an eye out for cute tops with more rich colors. How are you doing? I hope you and your partner are doing ok, and your little guy too Take care and you have a fun day as well! Love, Sue

You do look lovely in black, but you would also be beautiful in those rich jewel tone colors you mentioned. You have a "winter" skin tone which is why black looks so pretty on you, but you can also wear lots of other colors too. Why not do a search for "color me beautiful" (or something similar. Color me beautiful was a book written in the mid to late 80's) on the web and actually see what colors would look best on you. But hey, if you like black, wear black!!! Whatever you are most comfortable with should be "the rule"!!!
