“Blue”berry Month

Did you know that July is “Blue”berry Month?

It’s a good thing! Because I’m pretty sure there will be a lot going on here in my little blogosphere that works right into the “blue”berry palette in the next 31 days.

And what a beautiful palette it is! Great neutrals, silver-grey and taupe, a little cafe’ latte, and both a navy and ice blue. Great colours to wear here in the Southern Hemisphere during winter and lovely when done right for summer in the Northern Hemisphere.

Northern Hemisphere in Blue – This Aztec print skirt and cobalt blue shirt make a perfect pairing for summer. The print of the skirt is right on trend. Especially with prints and things tribal/native being so popular at this time. The cobalt blue is an amazing colour that adds a richness and sophistication to the look. I love the silver arm cuff. That is a bracelet that wants to make a statement!

Southern Hemisphere in Blue – How sweet is this little “blue”berry dress? Styled with the black belt and classic handbag then topped with the oversized jacket, is a great trans-seasonal look. If it had tights and boots it would be perfect for winter in the Southern Hemisphere.

Sweet “Blue”berry Layers – This layered look is perfect for the “blue”berry palette. Navy leggings, a white and blueberry coloured cow-skull printed shirt with a “blue”berry cardigan. Finished with silver-grey boots and silver accessories. Again this a great trans-seasonal look. It would be great for traveling between the South and North. Get on the plane in Melbourne dressed in this (it would be comfy and cozy on the plane), make sure you have a pair of navy or denim shorts and a pair of sandals in your handbag so when you arrive in California you can make the change. You’ll be looking hot in both hemispheres with absolutely no reason to be blue!

How would you work this palette and make sure that “Blue”berry Month was sweet for you?
