Double Minted

Few things in your wardrobe can make a statement quite like bold, bright colors. This spring we’ve been on the hunt for one of our favorites: cobalt blue. This color is actually pretty easy to find thrifted. We suspect it’s because it looks good on everyone, whether you’re pale like us or on the tanner side, whether you’re blonde, brunette, or black haired.

Cobalt blue is also a very versatile color. It pairs well with neutrals, like black, white and tan – as well as with other brights, like yellow and pink. And while it’s definitely a bright color, it doesn’t have any of the strong connotations that wearing red does (it says “look at me” and not “hey, baby, look at me”). Plus, there’s the whole royal blue thing, and who doesn’t want to feel like royalty.

Below we have picked two of our favorite cobalt blue thrifted finds, which both happen to be dresses. Devon’s is a bit more on the casual side and Britt’s is a bit…foxier? Both were a lot of fun to find and model!
