Clean, crisp blue brings an instant blast of summer to your wardrobe. Not just any blue. This season, it's all about bold, saturated statement color. Go cool and classic by wearing blue with white, give navy some edge by pairing it with black, or mix different shades of blue.
For guys, Bottega Veneta ups the wow factor with a cyan relaxed cotton suit (wearing the pieces as separates is always an option). If you want to tone it down a little, put on the Miles Davis masterpiece "Kind of Blue," and kick back and enjoy the summer.
