One of the trends in color for the spring 2015 season is multiple shades of blue. That’s right! If it’s blue, it is on trend. Any shade of blue you love, is right on target for the spring 2015 season. If you prefer baby blue, go for it! If you are more of a cobalt girl, wear cobalt! Prefer classic navy? It’s hot for spring; wear it! 

What is great about the shades of blue trend for the spring 2015 season, is that you can wear any shade of blue you want to, and you can mix them together! Designers are mixing multiple shades of blue together for the spring 2015 season. You can see this in mixed solids for an overall blue look. You can also see the mix of blue in patterns and prints. Designers have mixed together light, dark, and medium blue shades. There are no rules this season when it comes to shades of blue. You can wear any shade of blue, with any shade of blue! Love that!

Since blue is my favorite color, I am extremely happy about this trend. I love mixing multiple shades of blue together, and I also love going for a tonal look; like in this outfit post. 

Blue is a classic color. Chances are, you already own something blue; so this is a great trend to shop your closet for! If you want to add more blue to your wardrobe, start with an accessory you can wear with multiple outfits. This will give you the most bang for your buck. Start with a blue handbag, or a blue pair of shoes you can wear often; such as an espadrille or office-appropriate pair of pumps. 

Since shades of blue are classic, and a huge trend for spring 2015, I have found a few fabulous blue items for the warm weather season around the web and assembled them into the shopping widget below. I hope you love them! Happy shopping, and stay fabulous 😉

If you have been reading my blog for awhile, you may already know that blue is my favorite color. This is a huge reason why I am so excited for the spring 2015 season! Designers and brands are showing multiple shades of blue; shown together and separate. Love that!

If you took a look at my closet, you would see a lot of blue and black with touches of purple and green thrown in for variety. These are the colors I am drawn towards no matter what the seasonal color wheel dictates. This dress is the perfect cobalt blue and I love how it looks with my slightly darker cobalt heels. This will definitely be a go-to look for me this spring and summer!

Which color or colors do you find yourself drawn to season after season? Are there any colors this spring 2015 season you find yourself drawn to?

Chanel Blue Boy nail polish review

Chanel blue boy nail polish

Pictured: Chanel Blue Boy nail polish. Two coats of color, one base coat, no top coat.

Chanel Blue Boy nail polish was originally introduced by Chanel for FNO 2011. I remember when Blue Boy first came out, along with Coco Blue and Blue Rebel. I wanted to get my hands on all three, but alas, they sold out faster than you can say “ring me up!”

When Chanel re-introduced Blue Boy for the winter 2015 season, I was thrilled! Here was my chance to snap up one of the beautiful blue nail polishes from Chanel’s FNO 2011 “Les Jeans Collection.” Chanel Blue Boy nail polish is fabulous! It is a medium denim hue which blends in with any medium-wash denim  you can place your hand next to. It is a casual blue color which offers a cool, slate-like vibe; ideal for any season of the year. Love that!

There are also so many shades of blue which are on trend for the spring 2015 season, this makes Chanel Blue Boy a great color to have in your nail polish wardrobe as move from winter into spring. 

I tested out Chanel Blue Boy nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color and no top coat. Chanel Blue Boy lasted a full seven days! Perfection 🙂

Chanel Blue Boy nail polish can be found online here, here and here.
