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!

What fun to introduce the incredibly colorful Bright Spring, Natalie Rae Dickerson! I met Natalie when she was in the process of taking over the fabulous fine clothing store, Panache Consignment from my client and colleague Joan Lincoln. Meeting Natalie was like a burst of fresh air. She radiated warmth and vibrancy and was very game to learn more about what colors would be ideal for her. It was no surprise that she absolutely popped in the bright colors and that she jumped right in head first into wearing them. Every time I pop in to the shop, she is shining in some new combination of her colors. She redesigned the store to be organized by color and I find it so easy to find colors for myself and my clients. Read more about her international journey in the world of fashion and color in this month's blog.
It is a thrill to introduce you to Bright Winter, Bianca Calascibetta founder of UCO, a creative marketing firm. When she enthusiastically called me to schedule a color analysis after seeing another client of mine looking pulled together, I knew I had to get her in for a consultation asap. Her excitement was infectious and it only increased when she saw herself in her colors and out of the drab bronzers and muddy cosmetics she had been wearing. Her BRIGHT personality and dramatic but romantic style suited the bold, saturated colors. When I had the pleasure of helping her edit her closet, I could see that she was used to toning herself down with dull colors so that she didn't stand out. How refreshing to see her in colors and styles that suit her personality and coloring. The affect is harmonious and draws you in. Learn more about her experience and unique insights in this month's blog.
It is my pleasure to introduce you to this month’s Dark Winter feature, eyebrow, skincare and permanent hair removal expert, Gia Pauldine. Gia was one of my first clients when I started my color analysis business nearly 20 years ago. It was around that time that she also founded her business, Restoration Electrolysis, LLC.
Gia was easy to analyze. Her deep brown hair worked well with black and dark brown neutrals that were then and still are so easy to shop for. A few pops of rich reds, deep greens and purples and she was good to go for many years. When she decided to go gray more recently and wondered how to incorporate it with her clothing choices, we had the pleasure of reconnecting and working on her wardrobe and closet. I was amazed at how gorgeous her skin looked and she introduced me to some of the skin revitalization services she offers now including light therapy. Learn more about her unique, wholistic eyebrow makeovers and skincare maintenance to the process she went through in letting her hair go naturally from a dark brown to a multi-hued gray and how it impacted her clothing choices.
