Here are the basics of the Warm Autumn season

Worst Colors: Fuchsia, Hot Pink, Cool Grey, cool pastels
Warm Autumns look best in the classic colors one sees in autumn: fallen leaves of brown, yellow, and red; spicey nutmeg and pumpkin orange. Keep the colors in the medium range--not too deep and not too light.
They are not blended with a cool season but instead can blend into the Warm Spring season so that they can share some of the warmest colors of Spring in their palette. However, use them as accents for the best effect.
