Fall/Winter 2012 Trends - Cobalt Blue

By Marta @fashion_caramel

Runway collections weren't really dominated by cobalt blue except for maybe a few exceptions (yes, Stella I'm talking about you). There were some references to it here and there but in stores things are a bit different, cobalt blue is literally everywhere. And from what I'm seeing, us fashion lovers are making cobalt blue even more popular (go ahead admit, I'm sure you have it in your wardrobe already, I know I do).
Cobalt blue has high chances of becoming THE color of the season, and it will be very well deserved. It's flashy enough to brighten up any boring outfit and it looks good with practically any other fall colors. I'm loving how cobalt blue looks perfect with white, grey, black, tweed and on top of all in total look, démonstration.

 Now for my favorites, I'll love to put my hands in pointy-toe cobalt pumps ♥♥, any of the following will do.
From top left: Velvet trousers (iro), dress (hm), topshop for opening ceremony top (topshop), wedges (zara), laptop case (asos), American Vintage sweater (matches) From top left: Maje dress (place des tendances), Joseph dress (my wardrobe),

If you haven't fallen for cobalt blue by now I'm betting that you're not going to resist very longer.
Have a great week !
