I did the Color Self Analysis and am a High Contrast Winter...which means my flattering colors would be dark clear primary colors with these specific suggestions:
Neutral: Black (I have this covered at least)
Romantic Red: Light Pink (I haven't worn this color since 1982)
Power Red: Cherry
Dramatic Color: Deep Aqua (Teal)
Understated: Deep Purple
Metal: Silver
This season, I've been attracted to deep teal, bright yellow, pumpkin, dark red, chocolate, moss green, dusky plum and midnight blue. The bright yellow is the only one on my list that is clearly unflattering to my skin tone...so, at least my likes pretty much mesh with the suggested flattering colors.
For now, I plan to stick with my basic black-on-bottom uniform (with the addition of a wish-list skirt in chocolate and one in dark charcoal) I plan to add these colors in tops/accessories:
Last night in a fit of insanity, I ordered this coat in charcoal. It seemed a reasonable price and has a touch of the bohemian that I am seeking--it might be a bit flamboyant for ferrying kids around town, but I splurged. I also might buy this coat from Target (in real-life, the color is definitely more teal than the picture shows, the price is good, and I definitely get a lot of use out of coats during a Pittsburgh winter.)
