Would you believe us if we told you there is one color that looks good one everyone? It's true! 

 

Kate Smith, president and chief color maven of Sensational Color, revealed to Who What Wear that the answer is periwinkle. "Hair and skin tones 'cool' with age, and the blue-based hue, often called periwinkle, works beautifully no matter where you skin tone falls in the range between warm and cool."
