Hi, I’m Natalie
I’m the owner, creative and certified color analyst at District Color Studio. I have always been captivated by color, fine art and the beauty of the natural world. When I was growing up, I thought it was normal to make distinctions like, “That’s fuchsia, not magenta,” or “It’s teal, not turquoise.” I have always had friends texting me to ask, “Is this my color?”
Despite having a good color sense, I made a lot of mistakes. I followed trends. I purchased items that were not flattering. My closet became chaotic and nothing coordinated.
Several years ago I experienced personal color analysis firsthand and it was a game changer. It gave me so much clarity and understanding about my own coloring. I no longer wondered why certain hues were flattering while others were not. I no longer felt the need to change my hair color or lipstick to make certain colors “work.” And it streamlined the process of shopping and getting dressed (hello coordinated closet!) But most importantly, it helped me embrace my own color harmony that’s unique to me and the way I was designed.
Now I can breeze through a store, quickly identify my best colors and buy with confidence. I can invest in pieces knowing they will work for me, not against me. And I have a wardrobe where I can easily mix and match items. My best colors make me feel confident in who I am and I feel authentic when I present myself to the world in my work and in my life. That’s the power of color!
In 2021, I completed my training with Amelia Butler and True Colour International and became a certified 12-Tone Color Analyst. Now I get to share the powerful experience of color analysis with my clients and I absolutely love it.
What is Color Analysis?
Personal color analysis is a process to discover your most harmonious colors — the colors that make you look and feel your best.
The 12-Tone TCI Method is a color analysis system based in color science, accurate interpretation of the Munsell color system and the science of natural color harmony (no guesswork and no opinions).
Utilizing a neutral backdrop, full spectrum lighting and specially calibrated drapes, I work through a range of colors to find the hue, value and chroma that perfectly compliment your natural coloring. At the end of the process, you will have a personal color palette with over 65 of your best colors and neutrals for clothing, makeup, and more.
Personal color analysis helps you achieve beautiful harmony and balance. It streamlines the process of shopping and getting dressed. And it solves the mystery of which colors work and why.
When you are in your best colors you are confident, look more youthful and feel more energetic!
