The colours of a summer landscape resemble a painting made with pastel colours, even the luscious tones seem muffled. The green of the leaves is deeper in summer, muffled with shades of blue, which make the colours of spring cooler, as if they reflected the delicate blue of the summer sky. The warmth of the summer sun seems to bleach the colours to pastel colours, purple turning into lavender and mauve, and the gentle breeze hardly moves the leaves, which danced in the lively winds of spring. Summer is characterized by the gentleness of expression.
The male summer type:
Personal colour scheme: The eye colour of the male summer type is usually a deep blue-green or very light chalk-blue, sometimes brown. The hair colour reaches from taupe or grey-brown to black-brown. Sometimes the hair is ash-blond or light brown, without any yellowness. The complete colour scheme is tinged by shades of gray. The expression of summer is marked by elegance and delicateness.
Physical traits:
The face is usually strait or oval, only sometimes angular shaped or chiseled. Long legs, long arms and hands and a long neck are characteristic for the male summer type. The body is characterized by softly curved lines, his movements are light and sleek. The exceptions are smaller men of a more stocky build.
Personality traits (these are general tendencies of men with a summer colour scheme, no individual characterization):
Male summer types are typically perfect gentlemen and have an excellent sense of business. One of their strengths is being able to make use of detours. They are skilled negotiators and count mediating in difficult matters among their talents. The male summer type is interested in psychological and philosophical topics. Very often they work in research, but also in administration, accounting or clerical jobs. Many summer types follow their intuition and work as writers, poets, composers or musicians. They have no trouble living in both worlds.
Colours for the male summer type:
Male summer types prefer delicate, elegant gray- and blue-tones, pink-brown and deep ruby. The quality of the colours is muffled. Rough fabrics such as tweed are not advantageous, but smooth fabrics and the perfect fit of the clothes emphasize the summer type’s charisma.
Blue: marine, jeans, steel, smoke, azure, turquoise-blue, lavender
Grey: silver-grey in different degrees of lightness
Red: raspberry, watermelon, soft burgundy red, bordeaux, azalea, ruby to eggplant, cherry-red
Pink: dusky pink, peony, blue rose, soft violet tones, cool violet
Green: grey blue-green, turquoise green, mint, jade, woodruff
Brown: cocoa-brown light to dark with pinkish undertone
Yellow: lemon, light yellow, chrysanthemum
Metals:
Silver, platinum or very light rose-gold in soft, creative designs correspond to the summer type character. The summer type should make sure not to be literally crushed by too massive or dramatic jewelry.
