Please help: Am I a summer or a spring?

I have a hard time deciding although the balance inclines more towards me being a summer.
Here are a few pictures. My palm seems to have pink undertones, which means I have a cool skin color, but I can't decide when it comes to skin face, in some pictures I seem to have warm undertones, in others, cool undertones.

I've used an iPhone 4 to take the pictures, if that makes any difference.

Here are the photos:

Picture 5


Now, assuming I'm a summer, and that I have to wear blue-based or cool colors, would you think of these following two gray suits, the first one is better, and that the second one is not so good because it's warmer?

SuitSupply - suit 1
SuitSupply - suit 2

Also, are these two colors suitable for summers? I think the pink shirt is, but I'm not that sure about the polo shirt.

Pink shirt
Polo shirt

Thanks.

Don't worry much about Seasons color theory. It's of limited value.

The important thing in this case is that the skin looks quite pink. Therefore, wearing pink shirts (those that are mostly pink) generally won't be flattering, and vivid blues could also be problematic. And, yes, as far as summer wear goes, those two shirts are most appropriate for that time of year, if any - but probably should be worn by someone else, if anyone.

Your premise is a complete nonsense, stop asking silly questions and buy clothes you like.
