Discovery: My Color Passport
And again, it took quite a while to write a new post, BUT there’s a very good reason for that: I found a full-time job at Nespresso ^^! Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been trained to be a Nespresso coffee specialist and that took quite some time. Nevertheless, I still want to try posting new things once in a while. Today, I would like to introduce you to a discovery of mine.
During my internship at Belmodo, I discovered a new Belgian concept: My Color Passport. It’s a tool that helps you wear colors that flatter you, kind of your own personal color guide. Normally, you pay €29,90 for My Color Passport, but I got to test it for free :). Unfortunately, this tool is (for the time being) only available in Belgium and the Netherlands, in the ICI PARIS XL Stores, but maybe it will be available in your country soon ;).The tool’s inside a cute little box, with something that looks like a clover on top. The Color Passport itself contains 4 cards (printed on 2 sides) with your personal colors and the colors that go with it. The main colour is for your outfit as a whole, and the little colors are for your accessories and bottom parts, very cool!
Now, I hear you wondering how they determine which colors match you. Well, in the shop (or Bloggers event in my case), they ask you to put your arm on a color desk, and on the basis of your skin and eye color, they choose your specific color profile (there are 16 different profiles). Apart from the tool itself, you also get a card which you can take with you on your shopping trip (with your specific color codes) and access to the My Color Passport app and digital trend magazines. I think it’s very much worth the price!
One last thing. There’s a very lovely quote by Coco Chanel on the packaging: “The best color in the whole world is the one that looks good on you.”
