Introduction:
Welcome to my new series, “Runway vs. Amazon” where we discover the vibrant hues of season fashion. This season, we’re embracing the Spring/Summer 2024 light blue color trend, a refreshing wave in the fashion world. Specifically, catering to stylish women over 40, we’re exploring how this serene and chic color transforms from high-end runways to accessible Amazon finds.
In my previous blog posts, I’ve covered red, “Elevate Your Style: Adding a Pop of Red to Your Wardrobe“, and the pastel green trend, in “Pistachio Perfection: Embracing the Green Trend for Spring/Summer ’24“. Join me in discovering how the Spring/Summer 2024 light blue color trend can bring elegance, sophistication, and a sense of calm to your wardrobe this season.
Designers such as Alberta Ferreti, Fendi, LaPointe offered a few different runway looks in this hue. These were just three designers but there were several more. Check out my Pinterest Board for more inspiration.
The Spring/Summer 2024 light blue color trend manifested itself in a blazer trend in various designer runway shows. The light powder-y blue color seen in various styles of blazers from oversized to tuxedo style or textured tweed as shown in the corresponding images.
For us, the sophisticated women over 40 who desire elegance without compromising on budget, this trend brings a world of possibilities. True to my blog’s name, these looks are “Curated by Color” in light blue. Let’s explore the chicness of light blue through a “Runway vs. Amazon” lens. We all love an affordable fashion moment.
