Thinking about getting that jacket, but can't decide on a color. For blondes, what's best?

I am a strawberry blonde and love wearing teal.

You can go either way, really. What is your skin tone? That might make a difference?

The Malachite is a clear, saturated, cool green. Beautiful! Teal is more muted and warmer.

I'm fair and teal works better for me.

Sheesh, I'm light blonde/blue eyes with a light (but not fair) complexion. In Armani foundation I'm a #5. Not sure that helps and I've never quite figured out if I'm a "summer" or a "spring" for color choices.

I'm a blonde with teal-ish eyes and the teal looks much better on me. I ordered the malachite and sent it back. To me, it was a harsh green, if that makes any sense. I just looked at it and thought "Christmas season only", so I returned it.

I'm a Blonde & love wearing BOTH! - Malachite being my favorite-looks great with a column of Navy.

I have dark blonde hair, green eyes, very fair pink skin and I can wear every shade of green. Same when my hair was light brown with a lot of red. Teal is O.K.

With the exception of really shimmery white hair like my mother had I really think skin tone and eyecolor are more important than hair color.

I bought as much as I could of Louis malachite this year. True green is hard to find. Also I collect malachite jewelry and it works with the clothes.

Red, which I also wear a lot and green can be hard to wear; I think most of us learn what works: the right color brings the compliments. When I had my colors done there were no surprises.
