Bright Spring
warm & vivid
Bright Spring is warm but chroma-led — brightness is the headline, with enough clarity and contrast to carry vivid colour. It sits on the bridge toward Winter, so it takes saturated, clear colours that muted types can't.
Your black
Your black is a deep, slightly warm ink-navy. It gives you the contrast you thrive on without the flat heaviness of true black, and it lets your brights sing against it.

Metals
Bright yellow gold and clear silver both work — you can carry either, as long as the metal is bright, not antiqued. (yellow gold, silver.)
Colours to sidestep
Muted, dusty and greyed-off colours are the ones that let you down — they smother the clarity that is your whole strength. Keep colours clean and bright.
Are you Bright Spring, or the neighbour?
True Spring is warmer and a little softer. If you can take genuinely vivid, almost electric colour without it wearing you, you're Bright Spring rather than True.
