TREND REPORT: COBALT BLUE
Deciding what colours to opt for in autumn/winter can be a tricky one to master, but here at Motel we think we’ve got our AW14 colour palette spot on.
There’s no need to rush in the dark hues of winter so soon after the bright boldness of summer so we’ve got the perfect solution to help you transition between the seasons. Play it cool this AW with the new ‘it’ colour of the season - cobalt blue.
Whilst blue remains a popular colour choice year after year the palettes range from powder blue through to navy, but this year it was the cobalt shade that really made our heads turn. Hitting the catwalks across the world, this popular jewel tone was seen across the runways of Topshop Unique, Temperley London, and Altuzarra. Used in structured tailoring this pop of colour was also subtly worked into ready-to-wear attire.
Here at Motel we love something that’s going to make you stand out from the crowd. Our gorgeous Sia Maxi Dress Tonal in Floral Midnight is the perfect way to wear cobalt this season but with a twist. The deep jewel hue subtly contrasts with black in this statement print to give you an eye-catching outfit in this floor length dress. Australian blogger Karina Hunt completely rocks this cobalt blue look pairing it with some chunky black boots, and adding a touch of 90s with a choker and some super cool sunglasses.
