That's My Color!: Discover Your 5 Signature Colors And Transform Your Life

I bought this book hoping to refine my notion of what colors I should wear, but this book isn't helpful. Instead, it's a rather self-involved account of one woman's discovery of the colors that look good on HER, connected to a website for further info that tries to upsell you an online course for about a hundred bucks. The "free online content" that the book promises doesn't work, and requests for help at their website require multiple inquiries to get a response, but no fix yet. Disappointing.

Think you are going find about your signature colors? THEN DON’T GET THIS BOOK. I spent over $17.00 on the paperback thinking the book would be focused on how I could discover my 5 signature colors. I thought the book would contain polished, and professional-looking photos of colors. WRONG. Almost all of the book is about the author’s personal life, and she mainly mentions color in the context of her journey and her signature colors. I did not buy this book to read the sordid details of her divorce and ex-husband. It got old hearing how amazing everyone thought she was throughout her life (except her ex). The only pictures are a handful of amateur cartoon-like drawings, and people interested in color analysis might wonder what relevance these add to the book. If you really want to learn about discovering your signature colors and more, check out David Zyla’s book because it is detailed, in-depth, and is customer-focused. Finally, don’t get me wrong; the author has a terrific website, videos and has developed her own system of color analysis – has some really excellent, forward thinking ideas – I even recently ordered her DIY Color Analysis Kit . It’s just this book did not deliver what the front cover indicated it would.

This should be retitled: About Jen Thoden. It is much more an autobiography than an instructional book. I learned more about the author than about colors. There are some useful tips amidst the autobiography, but not enough to validate my purchase of this book. Skip this one unless you want to know more about Jen Thoden.

In her book That's my Color, Jennifer Thoden helps the reader to find her or his best 5 colors for clothing and makeup. It is not only about what looks good on us but also about what resonates with us on a personal level and makes us happy. Jennifer Thoden's well thought out and playful approach to personal colors has helped me a lot in finding the colors that match with me. Before, I have always been confused with the traditional four season approach to personal colors because I could not decide between two seasons. The online course that is accessible with the purchase of this book is phenomenal. With the help of this book and the online course that gives a lot of color photograph examples, I found out my blushing colors are bright and warm and deep. My eye popping and grounding colors are the deep browns. I also found my happy colors and my statement color; all in the bright, warm and deep color palette. I would like to confirm this by buying the set of color cards that is offered on Jennifer Thoden's website when I have enough money to do so.

Overall, it was an encouraging and positive personal story. If you are a woman of color you will have to translate the majority of advice for your needs. The authors offerings, though generous and heartfelt, are based on her own life and one size will not fit all. Keep this in mind.

The information in the book on color would fit into a pamphlet. This another book, that relies on huge spacing to make enough pages to qualify as a book. The author spends most of her time talking about her divorce, family, new love and tries to relate it to colors. If you liked Eat,Pray, Love The. This may the color book for you. The link she provided to her videos are trying to sell you. The clips are somewhat helpful, but is the same information out there on Pinterest, YouTube etc. Nothing new or exciting in this book.

Pretty deep but I got it I didn't know that other people felt that way about color. So feeling and color are harmonious. Great! Joe was the challenge? I didn't understand that he was the second husband for a while until I went back to the beginning. I did enjoy the book and some of the reasons why we dress the way we do. I am learning that it's ok to wear pink. Thanks.

This is the best self help book I’ve ever read and I’ve read a lot!1. Jen Thodens life story is basically heart wrenching but ultimately victorious, and her anecdotes are well written and so enjoyable.2. The core message of color analysis is finding out and expressing who you really are. This book and her color system have proven to be so much more helpful than seasonal color analysis has been where you go back and forth between subtypes never quite sure where you fit.3. This is also like a short Artists Way where I was inspired to be creative and to feed my inner artist. Her illustrations and stories brought me so much joy!The book comes with an online course, and I will definitely be ordering a color fan from her site.

This was a quick Sunday morning read which I found enjoyable and inspiring. The author openly shares her story of loss and rebuilding her life again through the power of colour. I personally was hoping for a deeper look into the phsycology of colour however as a lover of alternative health, I found this book a good base to start my own personal journey into colour for confidence and wellbeing.

This very short book is the authors story of how she got her life back on track after a divorce and losing a child. I do have sympathy for her and it’s a lovely little story. Beyond that, this book offers nothing. I have no idea why she even mentions signature colours in the title, as there is close to zero practical information on what this means and how you go about finding them.

Thank you for your heart-felt experiences and how much color transformed you and helped find “you”. The online course is fabulous! This is a great book for so many girls of all ages.
