Blues are having their moment, and brands such as Kowtow, Karen Walker, Paloma Wool and Witchery will make sure you aren’t missing out on this trend.
Cerulean blue, a light pastel blue described by Pantone as the color of the sky on a serene, crystal clear day gives the perfect long hot summer day vibes and is seen in pieces such as Camilla & Marc Clifford Men’s shirt ($320) and the Paloma Wool Ross Trouser ($349) Both are made in light easy breezy fabrics making them the perfect summer spring pieces. Harper Inc’s silk face mask ($50) makes masking luxurious and feels smooth and light on the skin.
French Blue, a deeper blue as seen on the Witchery Balloon Sleeve Mini Dress ($199.90) invokes a hue that awakens a vision of Paris in the springtime according to Pantone and we can absolutely see ourselves flitting around Paris in this gorgeous voluminous but still chic and put-together dress for spring.
Deeper navy blue allows you the comfort of being less colourful without wearing full on black in the summer time. Wear head to toe navy like the Kowtow Sculpted Wrap top ($219) with the Kowtow Sturdy Pants ($239) or add a pop of navy to a classic white tee with the Karen Walker Hi There Debbie shorts ($90) which has cool pocket and buckle detailing to create a bit of fun in the outfit.
If wearing colour scares you a little, bring this trendy colour into your accessories like the Hinza Tote ($59) to lug around your beach gear on your next beach trip, or even your next shopping trip. Stolen Girlfriend Love Anchor earrings ($279) bring a teeny touch of blue to an outfit with gorgeous blue stones and hoops, the perfect finishing touch to an outfit with a white tee and blue jeans.
Love in a Jewel has some gorgeous pieces of jewellery to help break up the block colours in an outfit without going over board like these Keepsake Pendant and Circle of Love Keepsakes (plus they are so sweet and sentimental too!)

If you’re hitting the blue trend hard with a whole blue outfit, a sandy brown like this Sophie Store Desert Bangle ($24) will complement the look perfectly. Black loafers never go out of style – look at these ones from Clarks ($199.95) or Mavis and Mick who have summer white sandals that will be so versatile for summer ($239) and can be mixed and matched with any outfit.
