The House Dress Series: Cool & Clear Capsules


Billowing linen. Cozy cotton. Floating silk. The house dress is having a 2020 renaissance. Flowy tunics, chic kimonos and muumuus, and ankle-length T-shirts are floating into more and more shopping carts. - NPR.org

Fall Closet Outfit Planner for Cool & Clear Dominant Capsules


Magenta Purple, or plum, as it might be called, is a color in the Cool Closet Outfit Planner, so if you would love to wear it this season and you know it looks good on you, then that would be the planner for you. 

But if not, check out the color palettes for Clear and the other color types to see which one you might like more.

Love, Jeanine

I do love the plum colour, but admit that I like it in small doses. The whole colour palette is in my closet at the moment (and seems to be part of my "go-to" scheme).

How cool that you have the whole color palette! Well, if you ever decide to try bigger doses of it, this would be a great season to do it because this color is everywhere.

You do? That's awesome! Well, this would be a great season to build a capsule wardrobe around it, if you wanted to, because it will be available in so many different things.

Neat! I do, too. In the past, I used to wear purple and green a lot. These days, I usually wear it with orange. Which colors do you wear with purple?

Thanks, Amrita! I do better with flowy dusters than with flowy tunics, but they sure are comfortable.

This is definitely one of my favorite color schemes -- I look much better in the cool colors. :)

Oh, neat! It's so good that you know that. Well, this would be a good season to add a few things to your Christmas wish list, then. ;)

I like a plum or magenta as a blouse when I where navy or denim bottoms. I'm not one for a full top and bottom magenta.

No, I can see how that much of either one could be overwhelming for you. And I usually don't do it, either, because I like to have some degree of contrast.

I can wear it, but don't do it often as it makes me feel older.

Hmm. Truthfully, any color that makes you feel older is probably not your best color.

Plum/magenta is an attractive color but wearing it? I'm not sure about that. I don't think that I can carry it off, despite my desire for dramatic colors.

I think I agree, Alice. Seems like it could be overpowering on you.

    ​Hi, I'm Jeanine Byers :)

    I'm an author,  Christian image consultant, proud former homeschool boy mom of a college student, Hallmark movie fan and big cuppa tea drinker. 

    I believe that creating your signature style is a spiritual calling. It's about seeing yourself as God does and delighting in your own beauty and style.

    I'm specializing in color analysis and signature style for black women.

    As women of color, we often aren't analyzed correctly when we receive color analysis. And all of our lives, we have been given sometimes subtle, and sometimes more overt societal messages about not meeting the cultural standards of beauty.
    My mission is to help you discover, embrace and celebrate your own beauty and style. 

    Thanks for dropping by! I'll see you soon.

    Love, Jeanine
