Blue

I wish I wore more blue…I really do (although I did recently acquire a brilliantly blue top with some adorable ruffles at the neckline). It’s such an elegant color.

















But I’m pretty happy in my grey jumper too.





Jumper: TK Maxx, Alyn Paige / shoes: Target / leggings: American Apparel / cuff: Ann Taylor / purse: H&M

Also, let’s keep the Facebook love a rollin’ … you like me here (I hope), so “like” me there and let’s be Facebook BFFs.


And, for anyone interested in a getting a bit of a jump of fall shopping, Eshakti is offering readers of Sartorial Sidelines $20 on their awesome selection of clothes. Just enter the code SARTORIAL0811 at checkout! The offer is good until September 15 … happy shopping.

You look awesome in your grey jumper! And your hair, lady, your hair is a bright red!

that wavy striped bag is pretty fabulous.
you should definitely wear more blue - think of the contrast with your hair!

I recently got rid of a lot of blue in my closet, but some of those bright blues are to die for. I love the outfit though! Very simple and chic.

I love blue, too. Except large bodies of water, where you can't see land, scares the bejesus out of me. I have a phobia of deep water and the unknown that lies beneath!

Those blue shoes are just lovely.
I wear a lot of blue, but I don't think I wear it nearly as much as black. I'm still looking for the perfect royal blue top!

I love blue as well, I don't wear it as much as I'd like but I do love it, it is a very calming color. I have a picture saved of that room as well - I love the way they did the ceiling.

The skull clutch and picture of the ocean are amazing.

The love continues, love the outfit and your hair is very pretty.

You look great in your gray jumper! I fall in love with colors all the time, so I hope you find something you love in a blue soon!

Love the blue shoes in the second picture. They look like the perfect shade for this fall's gem trend. I need to find a pair like that. - Katy

Another blue fan here. I don't miss it in this so-Courtney grey/black outfit though, what with your hair being so delightfully vibrant and all.

Rebecca said...

I don't think I've mentioned this yet, but your new cut and color look awesome.

Jessie said...

I have very blue eyes so growing up my mom put me in a lot of blue.. I got sick of it after a while and am now just starting to work it back into my closet!

I love, love your new hair!!!! It is so chic!

I wear blue more often than not actually. It seems to suit me better than black. I love all the pictures you selected. Do you ever mix gray and blue? It is one of my favorite combos.

jessica whitaker said...

Oh, I love blue! It's such a classic color. And I am lovingg your haircut...so chic!

Jessica Weingarten said...

Wow, that bedroom is stunning. Blue's a colour that I look pretty decent in, but never seem to gravitate towards. I'm definitely going to invest in some cobalt and midnight blue pieces this season!

Love that sweater and bag, PS. I still can't get over how fantastic your hair looks!
