While I think that there’s absolutely nothing wrong with wearing black during the spring and summer, many of us have been wearing black for months on end and are ready for a change—a just as versatile change, that is. When you think of color trends, you probably think of bold ones, or pretty pastels—memorable, statement-making colors. But sometimes, color trends can be quite understated and quiet. This season, that color trend is navy blue. The runways for the past several seasons have declared over and over again that navy is back, and this has now become a mainstream fact.
The beauty of navy is that it’s relevant year-round, and it works with every color black does (including black, actually), but makes your outfits look a bit more interesting than black does, due to its unexpectedness. I’ve been ramping up my spring shopping and at the top of my list is a few new navy pieces to wear all season long (and beyond). Keep scrolling to shop the best ones I found (you’re welcome).
