You are actually really lucky, you can wear hues from a multitude of colors. Just avoid icy/pale shades of any color. Think things like pale pale pinks, icy pale yellows; and super dark tones which will make your skin look super white (think albino). Also add great patterns, smaller on bottom (just a note). If you do wear a darker tone on top like a deep purple or even black, just make sure you balance with a nice light splash of accessories. I.e. a simple black top, dressed up with a chic scarf in emerald green. Or Sapphire blue tunic top edged with a silver trim and detailing at the hems, and neckline. Jewel tones which run middle of the line in hues look great on a pale tone and black hair. You are really lucky. Think reds, greens, and purples. They are really luxurious tones and can dress up and dress down. Good luck, hope this helps you out, if you would like I can find picture examples too.

Get a copy of an old book called Color Me Beautiful by Carole Jackson.
Avoid the newer versions by other authors due to poor detail in info and poor quality color swatches.
This old standby book is the best key to finding ones most flattering colors. A copy can likely be found at any used book site such as www.half.com, or www.amazon.com where it sells used books. You may pay $1-$5 for the book plus postage. Although some of the styles in the photos appear a bit dated, the advice is still excellent and virtually all of it is still very useful.
According to the tenets of this book, you may well be a "winter" and could likely find a winter color chart on-line if you look, but the full info in the book is more than worthwhile for virtually every person who could look better than he or she does today.
There is another version especially for men. Same author Carole Jackson.

You can basically wear 'any color you want' but because you have such 'dark hair' and dark eyes, I'd say that 'the brighter colors' the better you'd look ... especially things like 'bright true red' and emerald green (not 'mixed' but separately) or a really pretty 'flowery' print with red flowers and green leaves on a black or brown background.

ummmm
light colours will go gr8 with yr skin tone, u should try pure white and maybe a dark green.... pink and cream will also go gr8
Ex. a white cami underneath a green green double v-neck and a pair of dark wash jeans and knee high dark green suede boots will look really cute!!!
Since u have shiny hair i would suggest something light to make it stand out too... may b a pinkish cap sleeve shirt with a begie cami underneath and a white with pink poka dotted kee high skirt!!!!!
Stay Gorgeous,

I would go with any bright shades. I would avoid very light colors because of your skin color. And I would avoid dark colors because of your hair/eyes. I hope that helped.

Whatever you do don't wear black, it'll make it look worse... Try sticking to Bolds, like Red, Brighter blue, Bold greens, etc. Pastel colors might be good too...

usually red goes good with dark colors it gives a sense of mystery, looks great with big brown eyes.

ok to complement your white pale skintone bring some color into your life, colors like peach,pink. and other colors like the light green,blue, and aqua. my advice is to never wear black or red, it makes you look alittle more conservative and the * i dont care* look.
hope i helped :D

in the journey that your dermis has a golden tone to it and you look solid in orange then you definately positioned on autumn hues-vegetables, golds, oranges, rusts, reds with a yellow tone, beige, turquoise in the journey that your dermis has a blueish tone to it then you definately positioned on winter outfits-a bluish purple, black, white, wooded area eco-friendly, lemon yellow, turquoise, solid purple, solid blues and intensely gentle pastels of those hues
