Hot Slut Of The Day!
Carole Jackson - Author of "Color Me Beautiful," the book that tells you what season you are and what colors work best for your hair color and skin tone. This book was the shit in 80s! I've never checked to see what season I am. I'm probably the season of the fucking witch.


this stuff is actually still relevant today. it all depends on what undertones your skin has, eyes and hair. it can be helpful to wear one's colors...you begin to realize that everything you own goes with something else you own. no more "pants that i'm gonna wear someday when i find something to match them." when i do buy shirts that arent my colors i look like a washed out drug addict.
My mom was into this crap. I couldn't buy any clothes that didn't come from my "season".
Eep! I remember that weird "season" stuff! Weird ass shit.

This thread was worth it for the fart pay it forward idea.

that book is stupid. it reminds me of all the times i went to the department store cosmetics counter and got my face fucked up in clown makeup, and then hoped to god noone would see me walking out to the car.
wear whatever you want.
Oh man! When I was about 19 or 20 in 1982, on my very first job at an accounting firm (as receptionist), we had someone come in with this book and do a seminar for all the women in the office - me, Office Manager, Accounting "gals". We all had our colors done.
I carried that little swatch of colors in my purse for *years*. It didn't help me all that much, and I can't even remember if I was a Spring or an Autumn, and that's a *big* difference.
Memories!
I had this book as a teenager! I'm a winter and I remember wanting to be a summer. The winter colors really do look best on me though. Wich season are YOU, Michael K?
HEAVES! Bad 80's flash backs. I worked at a hospital, and all the frumpy, breeder nurses were so into that book. Doesn't matter what color you use, when one is a good 200lbs over weight, it ain't gonna hide the blub.

Oh shit! My mom lived by that damn book. If I can remember, I'm a "winter;" the "cool" tones.
Oh, I remember this!!! (I was "autumn," I remember like it was yesterday...and I thought the colors looked good on me. Even now!)

i don't what it is with mothers and this book. my mom practically ordered me to buy it. then we had to go to a 'color me' party. i liked 'winter' colors best so i picked that season.
you know, you can just pick the season you want.
She's a beautiful woman. She' so gorgeous . I love her. I saw her profile with photos at [ ____Seeking40plus COM_____ ] I also found her blog there. May be she met some mature babies there.
As my asshole ex mother in law used to constantly spout to me, I'm a winter. That's the only non-insulting thing (I think) the bitch ever said to me in the 10 years I was married to her asshole son.
you're season of the slut

I remember the neighbor lady had this book. I had a nervous breakdown when my hair, eyes, and skin all fit in different categories.
LOL! Same here! I just gave up on it. It was like some crazy trigonometry problem that I couldn't crack.

My mom had one of these. I vividly remember pictures instructing you on how to cover your lids in bright blue shadow and then top them off with a fluorescent pink.

Say there was a fart pay it forward... if someone paid forward an egg fart to you, would you only be able to pay forward egg farts or could you pay forward cheese farts and chinese food farts?
I remember all this. They actually had parties (like Tupperware parties) where they'd do your colors. They had this scanner that they'd hold over your skin and click and it would tell you what season you were. I was winter. I was mad because I wanted to be autumn.
I'm Summer.

This is better than the 'rooms of the house method'.
I'm a 'utility closet'.
Thanks, Bradi. (-:

Damn! I had this done and the consultant couldn't put me in ANY season definitively. Yeah, I'm the one. NO COLOR looks good on me.
- Think of it as NO COLOR IS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU!!!
♥♥♥♥♥♥
...I am aka BRADIFUL BITCH, I SWEAR!!!...
so i don't know how in the fucking fuck i got my hands on that book as a kid, but i did. it was my bible. i'm a winter and therefore should wear lots of bright pinks!!! amazing, thanks for reminding me of grade school michael.
I'm a Winter too!! It was pretty much racist, though, because it assumed you were a Caucasian, so all African-American and Latina and Asian women were lumped together in their own categories.
Don't laugh! I'm a winter and it's always worked for me. Luckily the recommended colors are ones I like anyway.
Damn! I had this done and the consultant couldn't put me in ANY season definitively. Yeah, I'm the one. NO COLOR looks good on me.
This is what Deb was referring to in "Napoleon Dynamite" when she put the wig on Pedro after he shaved his head, saying, "This matches your season".
"This ain't rock n roll. This is genocide!"
HA! I remember this. I was an autumn, if I remember correctly.
Holy crap, I have that book! I got it for free in the reject pile at my college library. Not even worth the trouble of bringing it home. (The pictures are funny, though.)
My mother bought me this for my 14th birthday, lmao. Amazing.
...Color me There!!!
Nowadays it's all pretty much orange.
