How To Incorporate The Trending Color Cobalt Blue into Your Wardrobe
It’s amazing what bubbles to the top of my brain sometimes. Lol. When I sat down to write this post about cobalt blue, I suddenly remembered a toy from my childhood. Do any of you remember “clackers”?
Basically, you put your finger through the loop and then moved your hand up and down, making the hard, plastic balls slam into each other. The only problem was that every now and then, one would get off the string and go flying across the room. Watch out! I’m pretty sure I cracked a sliding glass door once with these things.
It can be hit or miss with toys AND trending colors. Celery Green of 2021 was not my fave! Not to worry this year, however. I think you’ll agree that we have some pretty good options. I recently did a post on The Best Of The Trending Colors For Fall 2023, and today I’m showing you how to incorporate the trending color cobalt blue into your wardrobe. Keep scrolling to see me in some of my favorite pieces, old and new. 🙂
How To Incorporate The Trending Color Cobalt Blue Into Your Wardrobe – Sweaters
SANGTREE Women’s Crewneck Soft Knit Pullover Sweater
I know I keep saying this, but look how pretty this sweater is! This color is going to be the death of my wallet. lol. Shall I count the ways I could wear this? With jeans, black pants, yellow pants, a winter white skirt, tied around my neck while wearing a crisp white shirt…I mean, I could go on! Gurls, it’s just $31 dollars. Swoon.
GRACE KARIN Women’s Long Sleeve Button Down Crew Neck
A cardigan is an easy way to add color to your wardrobe, and it’s especially good as we transition from summer to fall. This sweater comes in a variety of colors if you’re not loving blue, and from sizes XS to 3XL.
How To Incorporate The Trending Color Cobalt Blue Into Your Wardrobe – Blouses
Allegra K Women’s Satin Blouse Elegant V Neck Long Sleeve Silky Office Work Shirt
A shirt in cobalt blue is a quick and beautiful way to add color to your wardrobe. Isn’t this gorgeous?! It looks elegant and expensive. It might be the first, but it’s certainly not the second! This silky shirt is only $33 dollars!
Gosh, I love everything about this look. The crewneck tee is so simple, but look how good it looks with a nice pair of jeans and some quality shoes. This is from Talbots, and they usually sell out quickly, so grab it while you can. It also comes in another trending color – vibrant magenta if you’d prefer.
How To Incorporate The Trending Color Cobalt Blue Into Your Wardrobe: Dresses
STRETCH CREPE SMOCKED MIDI DRESS – SHADOW PAISLEY
I love a great fit and flare dress! The cobalt blue paisley design is very unique, and of course, I’m a detail gurl, so I love the smocking at the waist. This dress already sold out once, but they’ve restocked so if you love it, act fast!
How pretty is this? I have this dress, and it is even prettier in person! It manages to look chic and casual at the same time. This is great for those of you who have a long summer. It’s made from a lightweight cotton stretch and is an A-Line silhouette.
How To Incorporate The Trending Color Cobalt Blue Into Your Wardrobe – Earrings
Large Genuine Soft Leather Handmade Fringe Feather Lightweight Tear Drop Dangle Color Earrings
If you like cobalt blue but you’re not ready to dress in it from head to toe, accessories are a great option. These soft leather earrings would add a great pop of color to your outfit. They are fairly large without being heavy, and of course, the price is right. They are only $8 dollars!
These are not going to be mistaken for crown jewels, but they are eye-catching and a fun way to incorporate cobalt blue into an outfit. The gold and large rose petals aren’t as casual as the leather earrings above, but the price is a comparable $10 dollars.
How To Incorporate The Trending Color Cobalt Blue Into Your Wardrobe – Purse
Karl Lagerfeld Paris Women’s Agyness Shoulder Bag
Talk about a beautiful pop of color! This Karl Lagerfeld bag is gorgeous. This is a classic “everyday” bag with a long chain that hits near the hip. The good news? As I write this, it’s 40% off!
This laptop bag is stylish AND functional. The description says it can accommodate a 15.6-inch laptop, and your iPad, books, A4 files, mobile power, mobile phones, folders, passports, cosmetics, etc. That’s a really big bag!
How To Incorporate The Trending Color Cobalt Blue Into Your Wardrobe – Coat
Omoone Women’s Long Sleeve Slim Fit Warm Winter Wool Blend Pea Coat Overcoat
I know you’re probably not thinking about a winter coat right now, but when I saw this I had to include it. It’s just such a great color! I don’t know where you live, but every winter I see so many black coats. If that’s you, consider shaking it up this year and add at least one statement coat.
How To Incorporate The Trending Color Cobalt Blue Into Your Wardrobe – Shoes
Your feet are a great place to wear the trending cobalt blue color. I love adding a pop of color to my outfits, and shoes are a fantastic way to showcase a POP! You know I love wearing high heels, so I had to show you these gorgeous pumps. I had a pair almost identical to them, and I wore them so much that I finally busted out a seam on them. These run TTS and will look great with dresses or jeans.
Obtaom Round Toe Women Flat Shoes Slip on
Ballet flats are easy to wear and look good with everything – from dress pants and skirts to your favorite jeans. I wouldn’t spend a lot of money on a shoe just to incorporate the color into my wardrobe, but at just $20 dollars, this would be perfect to wear for one season.
DREAM PAIRS ANNEE Pointed Toe Low Chunky Heels Pump Shoes
These I love! I love the elegance of this shoe and could see how it would elevate the look of just about anything. A pair of black pants, a mid-length skirt, a pretty dress – even a pair of nice jeans, would suddenly go from ordinary to chic. All for about $45 dollars.
How To Incorporate The Trending Color Cobalt Blue Into Your Wardrobe – Pants
This was my very first outfit when I started blogging, and it included cobalt blue. A lot has changed since then, but I still love wearing bright colors, and blue and yellow are still one of my favorite color combinations.
Since this was waaaay back in 2015, none of these items are still available. But, I actually think I like the Talbots pants below better anyway. Those are already in my cart, so you’ll be seeing them later in the blog…maybe with a different pair of yellow espadrilles. Lol! Old habits are hard to break.
A classic demi boot pant from Talbots, rendered in cobalt blue, is polished perfection. I own several pair of demi pants (pants with a subtle flare beginning just below the knee), and I think they are very flattering. These are available in petite as well as Misses sizes.
LKOUS Women’s Stretchy High Waisted Wide Leg Pants Business Work Leggings for Office
It took a while, but high-waisted pants have become a staple in my wardrobe. I love the tie belt! These are made from a stretchy material making them incredibly comfortable to wear. And of course, if you don’t like the blue, they come in other colors and are under $30 dollars.

love this post and color. lobe the cobalt purse with gold chain.
Love the Cobalt Blue. Checking out a couple of the post. Thank you for sharing
I want to know what Joe ordered, because surely fries and a coke aren’t $12???!!! And royal blue is our high school’s color, so I’ll be grabbing anything I find in that color.
I love cobalt blue, but for some reason I have very little of it in my closet. I may need to rethink that. Those “clackers” brought back so many memories. When I was in elementary school, everyone brought them to school and we played with them at recess. Could you imagine kids being able to do that today? On bad weather days, everyone had recess in the gym. It was so loud! When they started flying off of the strings, we weren’t allowed to bring them anymore. It’s a wonder noone was hurt. Makes me think of those large yard darts that we all used to play with. Apparently, I was born in the era when there was no such thing as a Consumer Protection Agency. 🙂
That was my era too! We also rode in the back of trucks for hours 🛻
Love cobalt blue – I have a cobalt blue pea coat from Anne Klein! Love the short sleeve shirt from Talbots too! Your posts are so fun!
Thank you for commenting, Cheryl! ☺️
Those clackers were lethal. It is a wonder that any of us survived.
Oh my do I love anything cobalt blue. So happy it’s a big color trend. Love everything in this post. Can’t wait to shop some of these. Thanks Tania
Love the pea coat..does it run long?
Susan, I don’t have the coat yet, so I’m not sure.
Love love the color! It looks great with your hair color!
The Apple wallet on your phone can be a live saver. I might have too embarrassed to ever go back!
I love, love love the cobalt blue color so I am glad it is trending this year. I have a tunic in the color and a purse.
