Want to Standout This Winter? Wear Some Powder Blue

Powder blue is one of those colors we forget about. It’s not the usual winter palette. You will be hooked once you try this fresh shade.

Listen to the episode:

“This time of year, we usually stick to a colour palette of exclusively conker browns, burnt oranges and moody greys, but sky blue is promising to make things a little brighter.”

Powder blue is like that rom-com friend character in movies. It has been there all along, waiting to get your attention. You know, the character that is secretly in love with the main character. The main character is too busy chasing after a guy that is no good for her. In this case we are all caught up in wearing black, red, and the other standard winter tones.

It is Calming

Although I love a bold and splashy color (like my post on wine), it is nice to switch it up sometimes. Powder blue gives off a serene vibe. It stands out in a different way. It makes the eye stop and stare for a bit and I love that.

Wear it Every Season

Seasonal colors are fun to wear. However, it is always nice when you can wear something all year. Powder blue can be busted out pretty much any time of the year depending on the fabric. You hadn’t thought about that, right? You are welcome!

Add Pops of Whatever

Additionally, powder blue is a great backdrop for other tones and prints. You can opt for a pop of red with a lipstick as I did. Likewise, you can be adventurous and go with an animal print. Think of it as a wall in a room. The options are endless!
