Welcome to the Indigo Tones blog: Living in Color!
I am so excited about the new Indigo Tones blog. For years, colleagues and clients have been asking me to share what I know about color harmony.
My fascination with living in color started with a fascination with incredible peacock who defies all survival of the fittest theories. Peacocks confidently walk the earth showing their beautiful colors and embracing their uniqueness in the natural world. There is a luminosity to their plumes. I experience the same luminosity when I see people wearing their colors, being themselves and finding joy in life. When I designed the unique Indigo Tones fiber personal color swatch books, I was inspired by the shape and brilliance of the peacock's plume. The Indigo Tones Personal Color Plumes are an invaluable tool in tapping into our own luminosity.
As my business has evolved, so has my personal color analysis. I have learned as much from the mistakes I made as I have from the home runs. The more I focused on COLOR HARMONY, the more I saw that there is a multi-dimensional aspect to getting colors just right. It is not as simple as handing someone a swatch book of colors and telling them to hit the mall. It takes time to figure out the individual, their needs, and how they fit into the world of color. In this blog, I plan to share with you the concepts in creating personal color harmony, answer your questions about fitting into the world of color, and how to make things work for you.
I have met some amazing people who are embracing life, living authentically and joyfully. In the series Colorful Lives, I will introduce you them and they will share their stories of embracing life in color!
I hope you will find the blog interesting, inspiring and entertaining!

It is my pleasure to introduce you to Photographer Extraordinaire, Light Summer Natalie Sinisgalli, founder of NSP Studio in Rochester, NY. In recent years, I have noticed incredible photos of my clients in their colors and wondered about the photographer who captured them. Natalie and I finally connected last year and exchanged services. Since then, she has embraced her light colors and even had to courage to wear a light green suit to a recent award ceremony. What a delight to see her accepting the prestigious Athena Award in that suit! It’s certain that everyone who attended will long remember how she sparkled and shined in that color.
Natalie’s passion for helping women find their inner strength and beauty is a perfect compliment to the my goals as an Image Consultant. We want people to feel good about themselves by being who they are. Natalie’s photos capture the essence of her clients and show what is unique about them. When combined with the perfect colors, the result is a personal color harmony masterpiece!

I am delighted to introduce you to Light Spring, Dana Emmings, a professional Ayurveda Practitioner and founder of Sacred Life Ayurveda. Each time I see the photos I took of Dana years ago I have to stop and stare at how she perfectly balances with the light and fresh colors. It is a pleasure to share not only those photos with you but Dana’s journey “into the light” since her color analysis!
Originating in Indian culture, the ancient practice of Ayurveda restores you to a complete, balanced state of being. It heals through natural means that not only alleviate symptoms, but actually rejuvenates vulnerable and weakened areas in the body. By finding your personalized balance, Ayurveda brings you back to wholeness through the right diet, herbs, exercise and other lifestyle changes for your body.
The essence of personal color harmony is also balance. We all fit into this incredibly complex and yet simple natural world. The philosophies of Ayurveda align perfectly with my approach to helping my clients enhance what they are naturally.
I am thrilled to introduce you to Warm Spring, Amy Coté. She is a trailblazing Legal and Risk Counselor and Founder of Think Out, who advocates for the people, ideas, and practices that help her clients avoid costly and unnecessary litigation, thereby eliminating waste and increasing revenue. Amy truly believes that when entities do better, we all do better.
Her golden eyes and warm red hair with a hint of freckles exemplifies the glowing nature of the Warm Spring. As a natural redhead, she has endured all the stereotypes about redheads but as it relates to tenacity, endurance, and professional prowess, she truly is a shining example of “kissed by the fire”. She has also struggled through myth’s such as “redheads should never wear red” and more regarding her coloring.
She has worked to find appropriate clothing for the courtroom without defaulting into the dark neutrals or muted colors that dim her sparkle and radiance. White is a great alternative to black as a neutral for those with lighter coloring. Learn more about her journey with Warm Spring colors in this month’s colorful lives blog:
