[Your Color Style] 🌈Changes, Live Call, New color fans and more
Published: Tue, 01/18/22
Happy Tuesday!
There is a lot of changes happening at Your
Color Style and I want to make sure you are in the loop. Please read below...
YourColorStyle.com is moving to Shopify.
This is a stable and reliable e-commerce platform, which is what we need. For years, we've done our own thing but we have outgrown this set up. What we have today, is clunky and extremely slow. It's gotten to the point where I can no longer punt on doing something about it. So, I've hired a proven company that is an expert in migrating sites to Shopify. The new site will be live in about 3 weeks. Hopefully sooner. With this said, you may notice how slow the site is right now. I've avoided
sending people to it because it is so slow. It still works and you can still order the color fans that are on clearance, but you must be super patient. I'm so sorry about this AND we're fixing it.
What does this mean for you?
If you have downloadable PDFs and files in your account that you have purchased, please download them this week. Please please do this. As with any major change to a platform, the accounts will be affected and I can not guarantee that what is saved to your current account will transfer. It might, but I just don't know right now. Never fear, we will absolutely help you if
you discover, later, that you are missing something you purchased. I'm just trying to get ahead of it.
On a more positive note, there will be NEW products to explore. The new color fans are in stock, but I can't offer them to you until the new site is live. We all have to be patient and wait 3 weeks. 😜 In the meantime, I will be posting videos and images to help you learn all about them. I'm really excited about this! Also, I will be adding Power Colors and Energy Colors to the prints and posters. You all seem to really enjoy the posters!
The teachable site where all the courses live now and where the Colorful U membership is hosted is not changing. I love this new platform and it ideal for delivering courses to you.
There is a live call this Saturday.
Please scroll down to get all the details.
Color Fans are on clearance at 50% off. Once they are gone, they will not be restocked. The new color fans will be ready to ship by February 7th. Hopefully sooner. The new color fans will be a different product and price point. So, I can not send you the new one in place of a sold out one.
The color guides are now a collection of goodies
on the new Colorful U platform (teachable). They include the guide on how to wear your colors, outfit ideas and color combinations, your one-page color palette, your complete set of color palette swatches, all the neutrals and a PDF of your signature colors. Once I get the new color fans in, I will add a video on how to use the info in the guide with your color fans. Plus, there will be a coupon for the new color fans inside of the new color guides. The new color fans will include the new color
guides. So, if you purchase the new color guide now, you'll have access to a coupon that you can apply to your purchase of the new color fan.
Whew!
There's still more to the newsletter, so please
scroll down and enjoy.

3 Ways To Wear Spring Lake
About the New Color Fans
Live Call THIS Saturday!
In Case You Missed It: Color Palette of the Month: January
Spring Lake is a light to medium neutral blue grey. It is a soft color and looks best on individuals that can wear light and medium colors. I also used this color in the color palette of the month!
In Colorful U, we are starting the work on exploring our signature style and colors. The theme of the January lessons is Taking Stock. We are taking a fresh look at our lifestyle, discovering what we REALLY have to suit our lifestyle and exploring color palettes. This Saturday, I will be hosting a live call for the members so that we can work through parts 1 and 2 together and teach a bit for
part 3. I can't wait! There's so much great conversation happening in the members only Facebook group. I love it!
The call will be hosted through the Facebook group. I'm trying it out so that we can see if we prefer this way or zoom. Either way, the calls are recorded and posted in the membership.
Each color has the color name, color wheel number and temperature
Unique color names (no more duplicate color names between fans)
New and/or refined colors for some of the color palettes
A hole drilled through them but no screw
You will receive one shrink wrapped pack of colors and a second shrink wrapped pack of ALL your neutrals. Your neutrals pack will be ALL of the warm/cool neutrals plus the universal neutrals. For light, medium and deep.
Your color fan will include the new color guide where you will find videos on how to customize your color fan to suit your needs
There will not be a ring to assemble the cards but I will refer you to an inexpensive option. I hope to offer something in the future but it's a bit tricky with costs.
I'm excited about this format because it will
allow you to customize your colors. You can remove the colors you don't like or wear. You can create smaller capsule color sets. You can take just a few colors with you shopping when looking for something specific. I, personally, only wear about 10 of my colors in a season. When you create for yourself a color palette for a season, your shopping becomes more efficient and focused and you create more outfits with less. We are tackling these concepts in Colorful U.
In Case You Missed It: Color Palette of the Month: January
I used this month's featured trending colors, Fuchsia Fedora and Spring Lake, in combination with last month's color palette to create January's color palette. This is a harmonious color palette which means the colors all go together.
Colorful U is a learning community and online school that teaches you to cultivate your personal style with
confidence. We are on a mission to inspire women to creatively express and OWN who they truly are.
The ColorStyle Membership is now called Colorful U. It lives on the Teachable platform.
We have started a year long journey of discovering our unique voice in color and style. You will be stretched and challenged to try new things and learn what truly resonates with you. My vision for you is that you become truly comfortable in your own skin, truly own who you are, trust your choices and creatively express yourself through your signature color and style.
Here's how it will work:
I will be posting, on a weekly basis, key steps and activities to guide you through defining your personal style and signature color palette. This will be work that we do together and restart and rework every 3 months.
In addition...
Every 6 months
- A seasonal trending colors report
- A core classics color report
Each season (3 months)
- A new capsule wardrobe in collaboration with Your Everyday Style
- 12 custom color palettes for that capsule wardrobe
- New lessons in the Colorful You program on defining our signature style, colors and work on our personal growth.
- A fun Pick 3 Style Challenge
Monthly
- Trending color guides with outfit ideas and inspiration
- A color palette of the month and color lab video
The previous recordings are in the members only area, if you missed them. If you would like to attend the live parties and/or watch the recordings, please consider joining the Colorful U Membership.
We help women wear their signature colors in creative ways that express who they truly are.
A few years ago, I found myself divorced, grieving over losing my oldest daughter and truly lost. I had forgotten what it was like to have true joy in my life. Did I ever really know? I didn't know who I was or what truly made me happy.
As I went through the process of learning about myself, I founded Your Color Style. Identifying the colors that make you feel amazing is a simple step you can take to build your confidence and self image. Color transformed my life. It is how I express ME. It is now my mission to help you connect to your true self and wear colors that make you shine... so that you can feel more like you again.
Rediscover:
Who you are
What truly brings you joy
Who you really want to be and to own it
How to stop being a certain way for someone else
How to express your true authentic self
Where do you start?
LEARN What Colors Flatter You (aka Your Color Style Type)
I am a HUGE believer that the more you know about color, the more you know the colors that flatter you best. LEARNING is key to understanding what colors really work for you.
Once you know your color type, you'll want your complete color palette in your hand so that you can start to edit your wardrobe and shop with confidence.
