I just bought a cobalt blue blazer from J Crew. It hasn't come yet (I don't live anywhere near one!) but I'm looking forward to trying it out! I'm a democrat and go to a LOT of events where blue is the theme so I'm sure it'll come in handy.
ReplyDeleteLove the color combo. Many more colors go with cobalt blue than i thought.

I'm sitting her in a cobalt blue skirt right now, so this makes me so happy! Love how you paired it with a neutral.
ReplyDeleteBlessings!

I love your outfit. The brightness of it is great for a grey MN day. I would probably have to throw on another layer and was thinking something black on top, cardigan I think. The capped shoes are the perfect touch. Happy Thursday. Steph
ReplyDeleteI'm totally craving cobalt! I really want a cobalt skirt right now...

LOVE cobalt blue! I especially love them on skinnies.
ReplyDeleteThis outfit is gorgeous! I'm always looking for pretty (rather than casual) ways to style my royal blue skinnies. Thanks for the great idea!
ReplyDeleteThis is great! I had a colbalt craving today as well! Wearing colbalt + camel, a J classic ;)
ReplyDeleteI am so pro-cobalt! Not huge on emerald yet but we'll see. My closet is overflowing with cobalt though!

Cobalt is amazing, love it! ♥

one of my favorite color combos, beige and blue!! love love LOVE
ReplyDeleteI'm cobalt and emerald obsessed. I might have to buy that Limited top you linked to. I look best in gem tones, so cobalt & emerald have always been a go to, as well as purple. I can't get enough of it.
ReplyDeleteI'm also lusting after your shoes.. I wish Me Too still had that exact style. Clarks has a pair that's most similar which I think I'll check out.
Absolutely love cobalt. I have a pair of pumps (similar to the Aldo ones above), a belt, and a blazer in that color! I can't say enough how much I love the color :)

Cobalt is such a beautiful and rich color. I think it also compliments every skin tone. Love your jeans paired with the ruffle blouse.
ReplyDeleteI've had a crush on cobalt since last year. I have a couple of pieces in this color that, surprisingly, I have found very easy to mix and match. I like how you have recreated the look in your inspiration photo.
ReplyDeleteI seem to continually crave cobalt too! (As shown here: http://straightfromthepages.com/id-rather-be-blue/). I especially love the accessories and blazers you featured. So classy with a punch of 'fun.'
ReplyDeleteCobalt is always a favorite! I'm starting to get into emerald a bit more, but cobalt blue is just so striking and gorgeous.. was it ever one of Pantone's "color of the year"?
ReplyDeleteI'm probably the only person on earth who isn't into cobalt blue. I like it, but the forced pair of it with everything right now drives me nuts!!! To me, brights like that really only look good with white or black. I'm clearly against the grain though!! And those pants fit you nicely, much better than some others skinnies!!
ReplyDeleteI love cobalt. I need to find myself some cobalt pants. Will do after my 30 in 30 challenge. Love the outfit today. I love the stella and dot bracelet.

Obsessed with all things blue! And I LOVE that shirt you are wearing! Paired with the necklace, its amazing!
ReplyDeleteBeside blue jeans, I probably own own 2 pieces of blue clothing. The colour doesn't do well with my skin tone. I love those shoes! Marshalls always has the best shoes!

Thanks for the cobalt inspiration.. I have a pair of skinnies from Old Navy, but don't have many options to wear with them... And I'm trying to not be shy wearing such bright pants... Iowa isn't very fashion forward!! I will keep trying, as I think the color is fabulous!!! :)
ReplyDeleteI did some research and cobalt hasn't been the "color of the year" for the past 5 years at least!
ReplyDeleteI am on cobalt overload, now I want more.

yes, yes, yes. i am very much on board with the cobalt trend. cobalt is good for my coloring, but also it can work as an almost-neutral. i just bought an adorable cobalt bag and have cobalt jeans on my shopping list. i like your take with the printed top!
ReplyDeleteLove this outfit!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is my favorite blouse of yours and I love it with the blue! The shoes look awesome. Super cute!
ReplyDeleteCobalt's a perennial favorite of mine! Love it!

I have a v-neck sweater and cocktail dress, but I think I may have to add cobalt jeans to the closet in the near future. And I LOVE both of the cobalt pumps in the picture above.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love cobalt blue and *your outfit*!! (Is there any color that cobalt actually DOESN'T look good with??!!) From the time I was a little girl, every time I see royal blue or vivid cobalt blue, I think of bluebirds............ (i.e., "Bluebirds of Happiness"!!)............ with their *brilliant* blue feathers, as in this link!!:

I love cobalt, but have to get out of the rut of pairing it only with black or white. Look your look!

I am loving the Southwestern Cardigan from Forever 21. Perfect for chilly spring nights.
ReplyDeleteLove your ruffled top with the cobalt pants -- I have some cobalt pants (my first "bright" colored jeans) and looking for a cute top -- can you tell me where you got this (if it's still available)? Thanks, LOVE your blog...
