If memory serves, cobalt was the “color of the season” about three seasons back. Guess what? Multiple magazines have declared it the color of the season for this coming fall.

I wore this bright but comfy outfit for a retreat day of planning with my women’s leadership program board – more on that soon!

Washable, lightweight, comfy, and SO cute. Check out the back cutout: read more
