MAKE THEM SEE YOU
not what you're wearing
Imagine being free of the obligation to wear black,
simply because you know exactly what colours work best for you.
Hi, I'm Jorunn.
I'm a Personal Colour Analyst based in Norway.
I'm here to help you get a healthy relationship with black.
I'm wondering if this sounds familiar:
You know this is an abusive relationship but the fashion industry is trying to convince you to stay and make it work.
Black is sexy, they say.
Black will make you look cool and professional, they say.
There's no way that you'll find something better, they say.
They tell you to ignore the shadows around your mouth and the haunted look in your eyes. They recommend buying a foundation and lots of other makeup to hide the wispy fingers of dark sallowness creeping up along your face when you wear black.
The telltale signs of a bad relationship are there, but how can you get out of it?
You've been told you should not wear black but you really would like to.
When you wear black, you look like a child playing dress-up.
When you wear black, people have conversations with your sweater, not with your face.
But you need to look professional and grown-up, and you want to have really sharp looking formal outfits at your disposal, and it's really difficult to do this without using black.
You've been told you can wear black but when you do, it looks muddy on you.
Let's say you're a Winter and you've been told you're told that you can wear black. But it doesn't always satisfy. Sometimes wearing black makes weird shadows gather around the root of your nose and your hair loses it's sheen and your expensive really cool hairstyle suddenly looks like a wilted squirrel.
Do you start doubting that you are a Winter?
Or, could it be something else? Might there be something you could do to make black the magical ingredient in your outfits, to bring to light the enchanted Winter that you actually are?
Wearing black makes you feel pasty and bland
You have to do the all-black thing at work
And it makes you look harsh and unfriendly
You have to because your job depends on it, but wearing black makes you look utterly unapproachable, and you feel stiff and stern.
You love your Season's colours, but when it comes to action, it's always back to black.
Your relationship with colour is a platonic one.
In theory, you see that all your colours look great on you.
But when you're shopping for new clothes, you stick to black, black and more black. It feels familiar to revert to your tried and true formula.
The Case Of The Invisible Woman
Why did wearing black make her feel boring?
Black is supposed to make a woman feel captivating and seductive.
Instead, she felt boring and invisible. The little black dress didn't at all feel like the winning formula. She felt like a sparrow dancing in Swan Lake.
Turns out, Coco Chanel left out a few pointers when she unleashed the Little Black Dress on the unsuspecting fashion world.
Even with a black dress that fits you and is in your style, it doesn't automatically make you the snake's hips.
There is no one black to fit us all, just as there is no one little dress that fits us all. And there's lots to keep in mind when creating an outfit with black.
But you know what? I'm here to show you:
How to pick accessories that alleviate the effect black has on your skin.
How you can determine what kind of black to use and in which texture or fabric.
How to find other neutrals that are just as formal on you as black.
The fashion industry has been throwing black at us for so long now.
But it doesn't have to be that way anymore...
The fashion industry are fabricators of fantasies and lies.
It's time to fight back.
You say the problem with black is that it is hard to find alternatives for it when shopping.
But the real problem is that you don't know exactly what alternatives to look for.
It's time to find out what You Can Do Instead
Even if you can wear black, there are ways to combine it with other colours that makes you look like a queen, not a witch. Once you know how to really use black, you'll never look back.
I know you're tired of looking for alternatives and black is the easiest colour to find, but you deserve better. If you only knew exactly which neutrals can have the same effect as black on you, but without making you look like Lestat de Lioncourt's mother!
And if you knew what to look for, you're more than half way there.
I'm proud to ANNOUNCE that the Masterclass is ready.
YOU CAN ACE HOW (NOT) TO WEAR BLACK
There are other, much better, colours out there for you, and that's what you'll get completely certain about in this course.
Imagine being free of the obligation to wear black, simply because you know exactly what else to wear that makes you look radiant!

What People Are Saying About Other Nordic Simplicity Courses
“I wish I had taken it when I was first draped .”
"I am so thankful for the thought and creativity that Jorunn has put into this class. I only wish I had taken it 6 years ago when I was first draped as a bright winter.
I’d have saved a lot of time and money.
Even then knowing my colors I made some expensive mistakes. I now have a much clearer vision of how to do this and look forward to choosing well in the future. Thank you Jorunn for your fun and practical way of presenting the information."

love how this course is set up and how it's led me to greater clarity step by step, asking me to go deeper each time, in a very practical way but with poise, finesse and great attention to details.
Watching and/or listening to Jorunn's voice is always a treat. Her trustworthy, refined and calming, yet joyful, presence is very palpable throughout the course."

“Has helped me make much better choices in clothes."
“Thank you for the additional lessons Jorunn. All the course material has helped me make much better choices in clothes and now your lessons on Bright Winters with lower contrast and ageing skin have helped enormously.
The explanations about why some colours from my BW colour swatch and some BW makeup recommendations just don’t work for me.
I have found your course insightful, practical and it has persuaded me to try Some colours that in the past I would have found terrifying .
Now I just need to revisit all the notes made while doing your course and take your advice to keep practicing what I have learned. Many thanks and best wishes."

It's hard to break up with black.
You've been together for so long. And you don't know if there's better alternatives out there for you.
Consider this course a dating app to find your very own, life-long Better Than Black. Better Than Black is a title I actually considered for this course, because that's what it's all about.
I'm not demanding that you toss out all your black garments!
This course is to show you options that you can consider.
And once you have your better choices lined up and ready to form long term relationships with, it's time to swipe right and start looking healthy, glowing and professional.
But I happen to like wearing black...
Wearing black is totally an option, if that's what you really want! My aim is to expand your options, getting even more ideas on how to wear your kind of black, and perhaps sneak in one or two ideas of something you haven't thought about, that you can try as an alternative. Prepare to be pleasantly surprised!
