Darker and richer than plain old navy, Majolica Blue is cool and mysterious, and is the perfect colour to keep you cozy this winter. When choosing pieces in Majolica Blue, be sure to choose textures that enhance the colour, and make it look vibrant. This colour looks great in anything structured or military in design. Also makes a great evening alternative to black. If wearing this dark inky colour is not your thing, try it in accessories, nail polish or shoes (Nine West have a great pair of Majolica Blue studded ankle boots coming out for winter).
Majolica Blue is my personal favourite when creating a dark smokey eye, as it provides a lot more depth and interest than boring black or grey. MAC do a couple of great colours similar to majolica blue - Deep Truth (as used below) and Nehru.
This picture shows a recent make-over for one of my young and funky clients (... well she is now)!!
Who said blue eyes and blue eyeshadow don't mix!! Seriously, if you have blue eyes, deep dark blue is the best shade you can use to really bring out your eye colour.
Majolica blue looks fantastic when teamed with slate grey and another colour of the season - Warm Olive.
Stay tuned for the next colour of the season ... Purple Heart
