As the summer temperatures quickly rise, the skies are a vivid azure and the sun is clearly out in full force. This season, bright blue colour palettes are drawing their inspiration from the piercing, vibrant summertime sky. Among the stars, blue is clearly the colour du jour, with celebrities increasingly rocking this trending hue.

Recently, the gorgeous Olivia Munn stepped out in New York City wearing a brilliant blue frock with a daring thigh-high slit. The 36-year-old actress looked gorgeous in the vibrant dress, which featured short fluttery sleeves and a keyhole neckline. Meanwhile, the waist-cinching matching belt helped to create an hourglass silhouette. For a finishing touch, Munn wore minimal jewellery and a pair of dark blue pumps.

However, the dark-haired stunner isn’t the only celebrity to step out in this colour. Model Kate Upton also made an appearance in a fitted sky blue frock with cap sleeves and a V-neckline. The dress flattered the 25-year-old blonde’s curvaceous figure, while nude pointed toe pumps emphasized her long legs.

Clearly, sky blue hues are experiencing a moment in the fashion spotlight. Whether you want a break from the classic LBD for a night out or a change from your usual neutral sheaths at the office, this punchy colour can revive your wardrobe.
