I'm a definite winter. Years ago, I hosted a CMB party. It is really fascinating to watch how the different colors either perk you up or bring you down.

If you've never been to a party, this is what they do: They cover your clothes with a white sheet so the color of your clothes won't interfere. Then they pin swatches of material to each shoulder, one side is winter/summer and the other is autumn/spring. I remember that they pinned back our hair because it's more about skin tones than hair color (which can change). They start alternately flipping the swatches, and it was quite obvious for me that I was a winter. If it's not so obvious, I think you could wear colors from both (winter/summer would be one category and autumn/spring would be the other).

You can also wear accent pieces of your "off" colors, like I could wear an orange belt, or even go so far as an orange skirt (khakis are a good example). As long as your season's colors are around your face, you're at your most flattering.
