I tell everyone that they need to go to Home Depot and pick their favorite colors out of the paint sample cards...
Each card has a few shades of the same color so you take the cards home, sit in front of a mirror in NATURAL light, and hold the cards up to your skin until you find what goes with "You".
Hold it up against your face and you will be able to match eyes, lips, hair, and skin all at the same time.
Now, it may sound like a sterotype but greens go well with light skin.
I'm a "Ginger" that is so pale that I'm almost clear with red hair and hazle eyes so I tend to go for outfits that fit with "Earth", "Fire", and "Water".
Earth = Green/Brown
Fire = Red/Black
Water = Blue/Grey
(I never came up with an outfit for "Wind".)
It all depends on your mood and your personality as well...
When I'm feeling strong and confidant I wear red and black...
Mellow and ingraining I wear Greens and Browns...

Brown, Green, Blue, Red - Strong colors.
Avoid peach, yellow reds or pastel blue.

" The best thing on you would have to be ... this red headed Irish chic!!! " J/K, or not? Sport that Irish heritage BIG & PROUD! Buy lots of Irish T-Shirts & sweatshirts like we do. All 3 of my red headed girls have green shamrocks tatooed on their necks in the back. I opted out on that choice. I'm having a shamrock airbrusted on my prostetic leg instead.LOL! Good Luck!

green! thats my best color and i have strawberry blonde hair and blue eyes. purple looks good too. red and orange DONT look good at all, especialy red, i guess it clashes,lol. red washes me out and looks bad with my hair. yellow also loooks really good. brown and basicaly all neutrals look great.
someone above said match with eyes, NEVER do that, u want the color to compliment ur eyes not compete with them. if u have bleu eyes and ur gonna do a bleu always go slightly lighter or darker than your eye color. same thing if ur eyes are vert.

I'm in the same boat, everyone always says that blue looks the best on me so I'm sure blue will look nice on you too.

i know barman some times wear a little eye liner. maybe turquoise and brown or orange. i think you may have to experiment with different shades of colours that are in contrast to your skin. light also plays a part

It depends on if you have warm or cool undertones. You can wear shades from all colours and still look great if you pick from your undertones.
There are two types of undertones: Yellow/Olive and Blue/Pink.
Here is a great article to help you determine your undertones:

It is actually more dependent on your skin tone - whether it is pinkish or greenish/yellowish (sallow or olive).
It doen't depend so much on hair and eye color.
Skin tones are judged on whether your tones are Autumn/Spring or Summer/Winter.
Here's website that hopefully will help you.
