Help with Latte Color Undertone

Hello Linea Ladies,

I recently "discovered" Linea, and I am so glad! So far I have purchased pieces in the Whisper Knit and rayon jersey and am so pleased with everything. In my opinion, his Whisper Knits compare with sweaters I have that were $100 to $200.

Anyway, I just received the short sleeve cardigan in Geranium Pink and LOVE it. This from someone who is self-conscious about her arms. I would like to buy it in Latte with the matching pencil skirt, I think this would make a great dress for work. Can you please tell me if Latte has a warm undertone? I am an Autumn, and sometimes neutral shades can have a green or gray undertone--not good for me.

Thank you so much!

I find this color to wash me out completely. I can wear as a skirt, but not as a top. I could wear the cardigan, though, if I wore it with a brighter colored top underneath. Or over anything coffee bean or espresso. I think it would also work over grays.

For me, the dark tan is better. I think it would be for an autumn, too.

I think the undertone of the latte is more to the gray side. It's just too light a color and just drains me.

I'm a natural blond and my skin is fair though I do tan. I don't know if I'm an autumn, spring etc., but the latte is very flattering on me. I have the skirt and short sleeve sweater and I love it. Hope that helps.

My latte just arrived. I am blonde fair skin and this color is easy for me to wear. I drink my coffe extra light and this color reminds me of coffee with too much half and half in it. Very flattering near my pale skin
