The Colour: Navy




























































































"She prefers the richness of all kinds of (French) navy to the ubiquitous black."
From Bali Barret's 5 Ways to Spot a Proper Parisienne in Issue Five of the Gentlewoman

If I had to only wear one colour for the rest of my life, it would be navy blue. Understated, classic and a little bit unpredictable...

  1. I couldn't agree more with you. I have more navy and blue than black in my wardrobe.

  2. I don´t have a lot of navy, but it is the color I tend to buy nowadays, so I can see a sudden change in my style.

  3. I second Fleurette. I always perceive navy to suit darker hair than blondes, for some reason, even though it is supposed to be a universal flatterer! Perhaps it is because I myself am blonde, so erring on the critical side? I don't know, but I still love it.
