Looking for a practical color check

[Harrykt]

I'm trying to make a small wardrobe easier to combine, and I keep coming back to autumn colors. I don't want to buy a whole palette based on a quiz result. Warm earthy shades look promising in the clothes I already own. That impression could be about personal taste rather than what suits my face, so I want to check it more carefully. I'd like to test one accent alongside two everyday neutrals first. I already have access to olive, warm brown, and muted red fabrics. I can compare them in natural light before spending money, ideally with the colors next to my face rather than laid out on a screen. I also want to see how each shade works with the clothes I actually wear. While researching what is my color palette I found several labels, but I would prefer a small real-world test over memorizing every category. Which starting color tends to make a comparison clearer? I could record the fabric and lighting rather than rely on memory. I want a compact set of colors that works in ordinary outfits. I would rather learn from a few comparisons than chase a perfect label. How would you test an autumn direction with just a few borrowed garments, and what would make you reconsider it?
