wear the dark and dull shades with
touches of bright colored trimming,
as rose, flame, orange.
4. Auburn hair with blue or brown
eyes takes black, especially in thin
materials, rich shades OF brown, dull
and dark greens, violet, pearl and dove
gray; navy, peacock or gray blue.
s.. Sallow blondes must be careful
in choosing their c%olors, but they can
wear soft gray combined with rich

8. Black hair, brown eyes and dark
