Spring Hue: Cobalt Blue

Everywhere I go, I see at least one girl dressed in this season's it color Mint/Seafoam; and while seafoam is a lovely color, there's another bolder color that'll steal the attention from all the minty girls out there: COBALT BLUE.

The deep, rich hue contrasts nicely in the sea of mint, and it's all over the runway for Spring/Summer 2013. Cobalt is flattering, summery, bold; and it is beautiful whether it's an accessory, printed, monochromatic, or colorblocked!

Next time you go out, opt to stand out in Cobalt rather than being a part of the Seafoam Sea.

White Out

Head-to-toe white is cropping up everywhere as an exciting Spring Trend. It is feminine, classy, immaculate and of course, fashionable. It might seem too intimidating, but it's a look anyone can pull off, no matter what your style is.

How to (correctly) wear all white:

1.  Wear Different Shades of White together




2. Mix Textures




3. Add Metallic Accents




4. Style with Pops of Color, Nude or Animal print Accessories



5. Add notes of black or grey



The best part of this monochromatic style is that you can really experiment with different cuts and styles of clothing since color and print won't get in the way. So you can create really interesting silhouettes and really mix textures to transform your outfit.
Another plus is you can play with with your make up (hot pink lips, anyone?) and colorful accessories without making your outfit too busy.
