Summary

On this Five Minute Friday, Amanda Fairley and Nikki Bogardus of PrismXI join us to unpack one of the most transformative tools in personal style: color analysis.

Nikki has spent sixteen years studying the science of color, and together, Amanda and Nikki break down how the right colors impact confidence, first impressions, shopping habits, and the way you show up in life and business. They explain why traditional four-season color analysis often falls short — and how the 12-season method creates a more accurate, inclusive, and empowering approach for every individual.

You'll learn:

Why color creates the very first impression before anything else
The three dimensions of color you must understand for an accurate result
How knowing your colors saves money and simplifies your wardrobe
The science behind why some colors flatter us and others distract
How PrismXII's 12-season method is 3x more precise than traditional color analysis
