I picked up the cutest cobalt blue peep toe booties. I'm smitten with them and can't wait to wear them when weather permits. It would seem they inspired a new appreciation of their shade in design... let's investigate, shall we? xo

So great, love this shade of blue so much...each image was a winner!
I'm not normally drawn to this blue but those images were so vibrant and beautiful. And that chandelier! Yes please!
p.s. Thanks for your well wishes on the test. I'm scared silly :)
my whole life theme is cobalt blue :)
new follower :)
Gorgeous intensity of colour - I especially love the lamp bases. I also love those medieval paintings with the really intense blue and I read recently that the paint in those days was actually made from ground lapis lazuli!
I'm with Style Scout, that piece of artwork is really great. I don't think people give credit to the arts much.
I am a novice decorator by day and a singer here in Memphis by night. We have great art here and people pack out the restaurants and night life, but fizzle when it comes to art galleries here. People either get it or don't, not much by the way of in-between. I like your blog, just found it, hope you post again soon.
Hi Erica,
thanks for the visit!
and...so stylish your site too!
Love Loving Cobalt!
I am loving the beer can butterflies, so clever!

Just wanted you to know i linked to your post!
