Trendspotting: Bold Blue Dresses

Loving seeing all of these vibrant dresses recently!  Bold colors are everywhere, and particularly popular are bright shades of blue.  From teal to cerulean to the classic royal blue, there's a shade that works well for everyone.

Be inspired by these lovely ladies:

From left: Christina Hendricks in a belted dress and metallic peep-toes; Angie Harmon in belted dress and nude pointy-toe heels; Heidi Klum in a bold-shouldered teal Rachel Roy dress and metallic heels.

Loving the nude heels and minimal accessories, keeping the focus on the bright hue.

From left: Natalie Portman in a cerulean dress accented with a fuchsia clutch and heels; Reese Witherspoon in Jason Wu cascade dress; Kate Walsh in a vibrant dress, Anita Ko jewels and black pointy-toe pumps.

Such a flattering color, it looks amazing whether petite, lanky or pregnant!

Here are some similar (and affordable!) dresses, to make this style your own:

What can I say?  Bright, pretty dresses just make me happy.
