Meet Mac Carvalho
Mac A. Carvalho is a Color Analyst and Personal Stylist based in New Bedford, Massachusetts, and the CEO of My Authentic Colors — a pioneering studio dedicated to helping individuals realize their full potential through the transformative power of color.
As the first and only Color Analysis and Personal Styling studio in New Bedford, Mac has built a space where clients can reconnect with their authentic selves and discover the confidence that comes from embracing their ideal colors.
Mac is professionally trained in the 16-23 System™ through Christie Ressel of Fashion Translated, where he also earned his certification as a Personal Stylist. His approach blends both the art and science of color with a practical understanding of personal style, creating customized experiences that empower clients to make confident, informed decisions about their wardrobe, accessories, and makeup.
With an eye for detail and a passion for self-expression, Mac helps clients streamline their style, simplify their shopping process, and avoid costly fashion mistakes — ultimately saving time, money, and energy. But beyond the practical, his sessions deliver something even more valuable: a renewed sense of confidence and authenticity.
Before launching My Authentic Colors, Mac built a successful career as a fitness professional with over 15 years of experience in the industry. His work took him across North America, where he presented at major fitness conferences, starred in instructor quarterly releases, and served as a Master Trainer, educating and certifying instructors around the world. He is also part of the talent team for leading fitness apps, inspiring others to find strength, energy, and joy through movement.
Throughout his journey, Mac has always expressed himself through his dramatic and creative personality style — a hallmark of his True Winter color season. His own color analysis came at a pivotal moment in his life, during a challenging period of personal growth. The experience was so powerful and life-changing that it ignited a deep passion to share this service with others — helping people see themselves in a new, more authentic light.
Through My Authentic Colors, Mac continues to inspire clients to embrace who they are — confidently, unapologetically, and in full color.
