Becoming in Blue

It's the color of the moment...blue. Designers across the board have brightened their lines with this showstopping shade in the form of belts, shoes, bags and clothing. If you love the color, you can make it a focal point of your wardrobe by finding a dress or a coat in royal blue. Or use it as a finishing touch to an otherwise plain outfit with bright shoes or jewelry.Whether you're blonde or brunette, fair or dark, you'll look stunning in this season's "It" hue. For some women of the world, blue, especially navy, conjures up images of school or naval uniforms and not-so fond memories of a time when blue was a compulsory color during their formative years. But for anyone who shies away from blue, forget royal blue and navy, there are, in fact, a whole range of shades, for you to experiment with.

It is a foolproof fashion staple – there isn’t a shade that it doesn’t look good next to. However, that doesn’t mean to say that it needs to be straight-up primary blue, which can be harsh on some skin tones, but bright turquoise or Caribbean blue or gentle sage, teal or stronger periwinkle.

Navy blue is an excellent alternative for those who don’t want to wear black. It is slimming and chic (especially with black or this fall's charcoal gray) and is a seasonless classic!
