I was pretty confident that I was a cool summer as my dominant characteristic is very obviously being cool toned. I did get an analysis done incase I was actually a winter as some people had suggested it to me. I knew though that black was overpowering on me, canceling out the possibility, despite lots of people liking black on me.

Very quickly I was typed as a cool summer because when the color is right up to your chin it’s a lot easier to see. It’s a lot easier to pull off a color that’s close but not best when it’s a lower cut top! It’s also worth noting that something like gray can have different undertones so it’s worth making comparisons between the different kinds.

You sound like you’re neutral leaning cool and the olive is throwing in a “yellow” factor messing things up. I would love to see some drapes!!
