Introduction to the Soft Dominant Color HomeThe Soft color home, which we are looking at today, is a very sweet color space. The colors are soft, and the ideal color combinations are low-medium contrast. Might you be Soft Dominant? How to Know if You are Soft DominantIf bright colors really wash you out and make you fade, you might be Soft Dominant. As I mentioned above, Softs need softer colors. And even white, unless it’s a soft one, can be too much. So colors that are even brighter than that can easily overwhelm them. Another clue that you might be Soft Dominant is the way you feel about your coloring. If you have ever wanted to wear brighter colors to give your coloring a lift, or “fix” it in some way, this might be you, because that is a common Soft mistake. You are perfect just the way you are, and do not need any fixing. If you are Soft Dominant, I just want to encourage you that you can still live life in full, glorious color, even if that color is softer. And in fact, you will feel even more beautiful, when you wear the colors that support you best. Your personalized palette will be filled with the colors that light you up and make you shine and glow. That is true for every color home, of course, but sometimes, Softs don't believe that, at first. Have a look at our example, a woman of color who is Soft Dominant and beautiful... See how beautiful that color is for her? Is it a color you could wear? Find out when you take the free color analysis quiz for women of color. Then, check out the other color dominance categories...

I haven't worn white since the rules on white shirts disappeared in the 70s.

I love that beautiful coral color, but can only pull it off in the summer when I have a good tan! White is just too bright and stark for clothing or even my walls - I'm more of a Navajo White kind of gal when it comes to the paint on the walls of my home.

Hmm. I wonder what that means. I looked up navajo white and was told it has orange and yellow tones, so if that's your best white, that *sounds* like you might be warm dominant. I don't think you have seen my post on warm dominance - maybe read it and see what you think.

It is beautiful, isn't it? But it wouldn't work for every dominant color type. Some would need their own versions of coral.

It’s strange: I didn’t wear pure white for a long time but now I like and appreciafe it’s crisp look. I love colors, too... jewel tones especially.

Jewel tones are beautiful!! And on the right person, they can be stunning. Yes, white is tricky. And pure white, even trickier. It's not for the faint of heart. ;)

Hmm, you might consider Light, too, because you mentioned "light" versions of those colors. Pinks and mints *sound* like Light, and Lights can't wear bolder colors, either. On the other hand, if you are Soft dominant, you would need more muted versions of pink or green.
