Cobalt is the most electric shade of blue, and it is a race day favourite for good reason. A cobalt blue fascinator pops against green grass, glows in photos and pairs beautifully with white, yellow and orange.
Our handmade Sassy Bluecy Women Headband Headpiece is a spray of cobalt lace petals with pearl tipped stems and turquoise accents. Here is how to style it.
- Design: spray of lace petals with pearl tipped stems
- Colours: cobalt blue with turquoise accents and pearls
- Best for: Melbourne Cup, Stakes Day, weddings, garden parties
- Handmade in Queensland by Nancy Niepess Fashion
Why Cobalt Is a Race Day Favourite
Cobalt is vivid without being harsh. It flatters cool and warm skin tones, brightens the eyes and stands out in a crowd. Lace adds delicate texture and the pearls catch the light, so the piece feels refined rather than loud.
How to Style the Sassy Bluecy
Cobalt and white
A crisp white dress with cobalt heels is fresh and classic. Pearl earrings echo the pearl stems.
Cobalt and yellow or orange
Complementary colours make each other brighter. Try a mustard, marigold or tangerine dress for a confident Stakes Day look.
Tonal blues
Wear it with a navy or sky blue dress for a sophisticated tonal look.
Weddings
Cobalt is a joyful wedding guest colour, especially for spring and summer ceremonies.
