What colors are great for winter?

I am considering dying my hair next month for the winter. I am not sure if lighter is better, or darker.
What are good colors for winter months? My hair right now is a plum brown.

I always felt lighter colors are best for cooler months. Our skin tone tends to become pale by December and using darker colors makes the skin more white in appearance. I like to stick to caramel browns and light reds/plums. Blonde is also a great choice but not everyone wants to go that light.
