Buying a winter coat is a huge investment so your choice of colour should not be taken lightly.

The best coat colours for my pink skin are light grey, camel, royal blue and burgundy (yes, there is a science to colour theory and what works best in your wardrobe when you collect the colours that suit you and each other).


There's an old myth that says "black goes with everything" when in actual fact, black doesn't go with everything but it goes really well with one color types wardrobe.

But if you don't know what colour your skin tone is, work with what you already own in your wardrobe right now in order to make the best investment.


So if you happen to own a lot of black clothing, below is the list of the best coat colours (from my brilliant colour combinations e-book) for you. 


Light green, mint green, chartreuse, lime green, emerald green, sage green, khaki, olive green, forest green, darkest green, light blue, periwinkle blue, turquoise, sky blue, cornflower, cobalt blue, royal blue, navy, light denim, apricot, soft peach, peach, salmon, mango, deep peach, pastel pink, dusty pink, coral pink, strawberry, fuchsia, raspberry, dark pink, watermelon red, bright red, burgundy, mahogany, mauve, violet, vanilla cream, mushroom, light taupe, blonde, light stone, light cocoa, camel, stone, taupe, copper, butter yellow, lemon yellow, bright yellow, marigold, mustard and light grey.
