Tips for choosing your color

1: Choose by your personal color

We recommend trying to find colors that suit you
based on your personal color analysis!

1: Spring (Yellow-based)
For those with a Spring (yellow-based) skin tone,
we recommend fresh, bright colors!

For example, even among blues, we recommend high-brightness,
clear shades like No. 23 Celeste or No. 25 Cyan!


2: Summer (Blue-based)
For those with a Summer (blue-based) skin tone,
we recommend elegant, gentle colors!

For example, among greens, we recommend high-brightness,
soft-saturation pastel colors like No. 28 Mint or No. 29 Turquoise!


3: Autumn (Yellow-based)
For those with an Autumn (yellow-based) skin tone,
we recommend calm, natural colors!

For example, among purples, we recommend shades with
subdued brightness and saturation like No. 16 Opera or No. 17 Fuji!


4: Winter (Blue-based)
For those with a Winter (blue-based) skin tone,
we recommend distinctive, sophisticated colors!

Black and white are classic choices,
and for colored items, high-saturation primary colors
like No. 10 Red or No. 40 Green are recommended!




2: Coordinate with your existing wardrobe

Take a moment to think about what is in your closet!
What colors do you have the most of?

Achromatic (black, white, gray, etc.), earth tones,
vivid colors, or pastels?

It can be fun to choose colors that match your current style!

1: Achromatic
If you have a lot of achromatic clothes, enjoying monochrome looks is great,
but this might be a good chance to try a bold color.

Primary colors like No. 10 Red or No. 40 Green
will really make your achromatic pieces pop!


2: Earth Tones
If you own many earth tones, we recommend colors with
subdued tones, as well as browns, beiges, and navies.

3: Pastels
If you wear a lot of pastels,
try pairing them with other pastel shades,
or mix them with similar colors for a cute look!


4: Vivids
If you have many vivid pieces,
they look great with other bright, bold colors,
or paired with black, white, or other achromatic tones.

5: Others
If you have a lot of patterns,
try choosing a color found within one of those patterns
to make coordinating your outfit easier!


3: Choose by your preferred style

It is also interesting to choose based on the style you like!
Let's check out our recommended colors for different style preferences!


1: Cool Style
If you prefer a sophisticated, cool, and edgy look,
we suggest vivid No. 18 Purple, No. 48 Black, or No. 47 Charcoal.

Calm tones, blues, and purples are highly recommended.


2: Feminine Style
If you are looking for a soft, cute, and feminine impression,
we recommend No. 13 Sakura, No. 1 White,
or No. 43 Light Gray!

Also, keep in mind that the color you choose
might change depending on whether you want a casual look
or something more formal and elegant.


3: Casual Style
If you prefer a casual vibe that's easy for everyday wear,
we recommend clear colors, yellows, greens, or beiges.


4: Elegant Style
For events like small outings or parties
where you want an elegant atmosphere,
we recommend colors with slightly calmer tones or brighter pastels.
