I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

No watching the Gilmore Girls season 5 finale on tape when I own the entire series.

I like brick red with dark teal, myself.

Very good colors for people who cross categories.

BTW, here are the three color groupings that T&S use. (Basically they eliminate Spring from Color Me Beautiful, which makes sense since there are very few of them.) Then the color charts later in the book play off these basic ones and give you ideas on what colors to wear together.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Those charts confuse me! I'm thinking maybe I'm cool and bright, because the "least suit" colours are the most horrible, and the "best suits" of the others I'd probably not wear, but the colours they list for it are not what I consider home runs.

Also, black, people, black.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

BTW, here are the three color groupings that T&S use.

I am definitely "Cool and Bright" then, because the colors are right on, both in the Best and Least Suit.

Also, black! But not a brown-black or a gray-black, for me.

Also, black, people, black.

In a non-T&S world, both black and true white would be in cool and bright for sure.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

They confuse me, too.

I hate colour breakdowns that basically ignore non-whites.

I have a mango enabler. He's going to buy me Indian mangoes. Woot!

I've always seemed to be a mix of Winter and Summer--I can wear jewel tones and black pretty well, and also pastels (every time I wear peach, I get tons of compliments).
