Advance Praise

This is exactly what the doctor ordered!

A fabulous book, totally on point with the world as it is. Bringing so much positivity to our lives … something that has been lacking in recent times. I’m a ‘Follower of Fashion’ when it comes to Jules Standish … she is clever, witty and fun and always thinks ‘outside the box’. Her depth of knowledge using colour through mindfulness and holistic diagnosis is really quite astounding. Being a songwriter, I write lyrics using a similar process to Jules – stories with layers of colour, uplifting and positive vibes … ‘Sending You Love Across the World’ creating calm, happiness and ‘A Colourful Dose of Optimism!’

Susie Webb, Singer/songwriter of the BossaNova album


We all want to wear colour, yet our lack of knowledge and understanding has us hiding behind our dark blues and blacks, fearful of making an awkward mistake. If you are yearning to break out of your colour prison let Jules Standish help you match the right shades for your mood and feel the power of light.
