This color reminds me of the “Cobalt” Blue from so many years ago- it’s beautiful! Such a flattering color, and I’m looking forward to wearing it. I love the suggested items that you featured in this Pantone “It” color- especially the accessories!
Nancy Weiss says
Good Morning Debi,
It does remind me of cobalt blue from the 90’s and I wish I would have kept this pretty suede and leather dress I had. Oh well, it’s a refreshing color and I’m happy to be wearing it again. Thank you for reading and emailing me to let me know your thoughts.
Enjoy your week!
