Characteristic
Autumn color type is considered the brightest among the rest. This is because, by nature, autumn woman has golden or red luxurious hair combined with blue or blue, emerald, brown eyes. Appearance color type "autumn" is associated with the warmth and brightness of autumn colors.
Leather
