Sizzle in Cobalt blue


Cobalt is a glittery shade of blue. It’s also widely referred to as “Royal Blue” another description of cobalt is electric blue.

Cobalt blue is the perfect mix of sophistication for any season, any weather and any occasion. Cobalt blue will take you from one season to another.

It looks great when teamed with blacks, whites, greys and metallic accents and detailing.

It’s poppy and fresh for a casual date but also elegant and rich in heavier fabrics for special occasions.

You can wear it as a whole outfit or if you’re more on the conservative side with colour, wear it in small doses by mixing it with other solids and patterns.

Alternatively, pick cobalt blue accessories to add a bright pop of chic color to your outfit. Don’t go head to toe cobalt blue. That’s just tacky.

Instead break it up with complimentary colours to the shade such as nudes, beiges, gold, silvers, whites and blacks.

If you’re wearing a cobalt color dress, don’t match your handbag or shoes to the dress but rather compliment it with a pair of patent nude pumps, white bangle or gold accessories.

Try delicate earrings, a slender bangle bracelet, or charm bracelet.

When going for a sophisticated look, less is best, so do not overdo the accessories Avoid dark colours such as browns or teal that will offset or distract the stunning hue of cobalt blue.

You can try a black statement necklace or earrings with your cobalt blue dress for a classic chic look.

What’s more, cobalt blue is a colour that can be worn by women of any age without having to regard the suitability of their age against the shade to wear it.

Another thing to keep in mind when considering adding cobalt to your wardrobe is it tends to look richer in finer fabrics, not cheap ones.

Finally, it coordinates well with a plethora of colors like yellow, coral, turquoise, sky blue, mint and pink.
