The Color that Looks Amazing on EVERYONE!

This Color Blue Looks Great with Every Skin Tone…

Hands down, this shade of blue (coat pictured below) is one of my all-time favorite colors.
It literally looks good on everyone! I call it ‘TV blue’ because if you are going to be on TV for any reason, this is the color you should wear.

TIP: By the way, if you’ve ever wondered what to wear on TV, don’t be afraid to wear bright colors. They actually look better on TV.
When in doubt opt for solids, and go easy on the jewelry (avoid clanking bangles).

Keep scrolling to see how I incorporated bright blue into my winter wardrobe.

The Blue Coat

I’ve said before and I’ll say it again…I’m a coat and jacket girl…through and through.
I LOVE them… and that is one of the MANY reasons why I’m SO excited to be here in Telluride, Colorado.
And, back to living in…seasons!!

I am a firm believer in always covering your wardrobe basics FIRST.

More Winter Coats

You should also check out this post and VIDEO I did featuring winter coats to explore all of your options. And, this one featuring duster coats!
Be sure to check out this plaid coat option too. And, lastly, my most popular coats and jackets of 2017 are posted here.

BUT, I would strongly consider the coat above. It layers beautifully. It is made out of a thick boucle wool and is quite warm.
It’s also a flattering and unexpected color to brighten up your season!

The Boots

Remember these Sorel boots? The ones I brought to Iceland (read more about that trip here) and featured in my recent Top 5 Essential Winter Boots video here?
I found a few sizes on MAJOR sale here. And more here. They run TTS.

    I love this color too and I’ve been trying to get as many pieces as I can. I wore a beautiful dress from Macy’s actually for my retirement party if there was a way I could send you a picture I would. Anyway thanks again for all you do. All your inspiration. You never know who you’re going to inspire in a single day.

    Sincerely,
    Heather

    Hello Erin –
    Love love this coat! Do you feel it runs true to size? Can you share what size you are wearing in it?
    Thank you : )

    Actually, I look terrible in that color. Probably because of my slightly pinkish skintone and my very light green/grey eyes. It makes me look sick.
