Blue Crush Somewhere between azure and lapiz, the oceanic color cerulean is bound to make waves. Tremendously tranquil and soothing yet vivid and lively, it is no wonder this pure and picturesque rendition of true blue was favored by impressionists. After all, only cerulean could possibly capture the essence of the sky on an idyllically clear, cloudless day. The cool, crisp hue is classically married with monochromatic shades of blue, including its cousin cobalt, and white. It’s unexpectedly coquettish with pops of chartreuse or citrus hues; however, it also finds an earthy harmony with rose and rust tones. — Christina Spratt Spencer
