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.
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.
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.
Chow.com has a list of the most delicious sandwiches.
Also, black, people, black.
In a non-T&S world, both black and true white would be in cool and bright for sure.

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).
There's an old guy at the office who knows everyone's name. Like, everyone. I know this, because he always uses your name when he talks to you, and he talks to everyone he passes. And he walks around a lot. It's pretty incredible. I meet with people and forget them the next week. Which is quite sad.
