True Spring color palette
True Spring, also called Warm Spring, is the warmest of the Springs: its colors are golden, sunny and clear, like coral, golden yellow, warm turquoise and grass green. It needs warmth and brightness together; cool icy shades and dusty muted ones make it look dull.

How to tell if you are a True Spring
- Gold jewelry and cream look natural; silver and pure white look cold on you.
- Next to True Autumn: you look better in clear coral than in rust, and earthy muted shades make you look heavy.
- Next to Bright Spring: your contrast is medium, so the most electric brights can feel like too much.
How to wear the True Spring palette
- Camel, cream and warm navy are your base; add coral, tangerine or warm turquoise.
- Combine two warm brights with a cream neutral for an easy spring look.
