Summer Color Palette
The Summer palette is cool and soft: powder blue, dusty rose, lavender, sage and plum, all blue based and all with a little grey in them. In personal color analysis Summer splits three ways, into Light Summer, True Summer and Soft Summer, depending on whether lightness, coolness or softness is the dimension that rules your coloring.
If you are here for a summer palette for a room, a wedding or a brand rather than for yourself, these colors are the same family. The three seasons below are the version that applies to a person.
