This is the second book in the series about the Tonal Color Families.
Pamela Graham’s aim is to sweep away the dogmatic and rigid attitude of the early days which always caused resistance, and put back the fun, the flexibility and the common sense into a magical medium.
Although this book majors on the WARM Color Family there’s plenty of inspiration if you’ve been determined a Spring, an Autumn or even if you just recognize that you have a WARM skin tone.
Identifying a WARM or COOL skin tone is one of the major first steps towards appreciating how color works.
Because each book is designed to ‘stand-alone’, each contains the same brief and simplistic walk-through the color theory before expanding into the appropriate color direction.
With lots of colourful illustrations (showing real women), it explains how and why the WARM colors complement your natural coloring and how to enjoy using color cheaply and easily whatever your lifestyle. Also included is a print-ready Color Swatch that assembles into a mirror-image of the 45 shade fabric Color Swatch.

There are still many women who, even after an expensive color consultation, have little idea of what their color direction is all about. So whether you’ve been professionally analysed, cleverly worked out your own color direction or even, through trial and error determined that WARM colors make you look and feel more attractive, this book will put you in the ‘driving seat’.
Color is a Science but it’s here to be enjoyed so have the confidence to TAKE what works for you and REJECT what doesn’t!
Understanding is the key!
Anyone can wear any color – red, blue, green, yellow – but by choosing the shades of each that echo your own natural coloring you will create harmony and look more attractive.
Wear what makes you feel good always – whether it’s in your color palette or not. After you’ve read this book you’ll know what it’s about. If something doesn’t work perfectly then you’ll know the reason why and, more to the point, you’ll know how to make it work. Understanding is the key!
