What to Do After a Colour Analysis: 3 Ways to Use Your Swatch Book

So, you’ve had your Colour Analysis done (or you’re thinking about it!) and now you’ve got your beautiful swatch book in hand. But what next?

Your swatches aren’t just pretty colours - they’re a powerful tool to help you shop smarter, feel more confident, and gradually build a wardrobe that really works for you.

Colour swatch books

Here are 3 simple ways to start using them straight away:

1️⃣ Take them shopping

Keep your swatch book in your bag and bring it out in shops. Hold the swatches against clothes before you try them on - you’ll see immediately if the colour makes you glow or if it washes you out. It takes the guesswork out of shopping and helps you avoid those “what was I thinking?” purchases!

2️⃣ Start small

You don’t need to replace your whole wardrobe overnight. Start with smaller, affordable pieces like tops, scarves, or jewellery in your new colours. These little touches can instantly lift your look and give you confidence in your palette before you commit to bigger investments.

3️⃣ Mix with your favourites

This is about building, not replacing. Pair your new shades with pieces you already love. For example, if your favourite jeans are staying, why not add a top in one of your best colours? Over time, your wardrobe will naturally shift towards colours that make you shine.

Final Thoughts

Your swatches are a guide to help you create a wardrobe that feels more “you.” With a little practice, you’ll find shopping easier, getting dressed more fun, and your confidence growing every day.
