There's no doubt that, in the past few months, saturated shades have been the trend that outshines the rest. While we still love our neutrals, the attention that colours such as fuchsia, Apérol orange, and cobalt blue have been getting is unmatched. But there's been a shade of blue that's been slowly trickling into the fashion scene lately, and it's cerulean. You may remember the bright blue coming down the Balenciaga autumn/winter 22 runway and then appearing again when the exact look was worn by Kim Kardashian at the Oscars. The colour is, undoubtedly, trendy at the moment, but I predict it's only going to get bigger in the months to come.

If you haven't tapped into the saturated-shades trend yet, this is your time. While cerulean hasn't completely taken over the market yet (I don't think I'll be able to say the same in a few months), I've rounded up the best pieces in the shade that are available to shop right now. Keep scrolling to fall in love with this daring hue.
