One of the colour trends that is continuing this year is blue in all its shades ... For over 20 years, Pantone, the global authority on color, has surveyed the designers of Fashion Weeks and beyond to bring you the season's most important color trends ..... and they have ear marked Monaco Blue as one of the hottest shades of Spring/ Summer 2013 .... Pantone's executive director Leatrice Eiseman said, "It speaks to the practicality that we are seeing in society" ..... There is still a concern about the state of the global economy and recession and it seems like its the fashion industry's nod to economics ... But we whose passion lies in fashion and frivolously fritter our time watching fashion shows around the globe like a hawk .... have been filing this colour that falls somewhere between navy and cobalt blue, for sometime now .... and experimented around town as part of our daily wear !! .... We have joyously found out, that its just so right for the Indian skin tone and the colours we love in our culture and heritage ..... after all our handsomest Gods in the land of a million Gods have always been depicted in blue ...... Neelkanth aka Lord Shiva and Ghanashyam aka Lord Krishna :) ..... Apart from Fashion Week trend forecasts and mythology .... The colour in its brighter avatar of the azure seas of tiny Monaco ( its a country to the south of France and famous for its Grand Prix, Princess Grace and as the playground of the rich and beautiful) ...... was also seen on the red carpet of the most famous show on earth - the Oscars 2013 :) .... We shot S's favourite guinea pig - D in a Zara blue dress accessorised with different colour combinations and happily state that this is one colour that can be repeatedly married to different colours to create unending conjugal bliss !!! Lol .... Heheheh ... See how a blue dupatta made S do a surprise lil jig of spring ..... read on :D
