When you think of spring, pastels naturally come to mind. Not that there's anything wrong with that. After a long, drab winter, we all can use a little color pick-me-up. But pastels for spring, to paraphrase Miranda Priestly, isn't exactly groundbreaking. Sporting dark denim for spring, however, is pretty novel.
Shades like navy, ink, indigo and midnight are more associated with fall and winter than spring. We like taking (fashion) risks, though. Plus, there's something about rocking the deeper blue hues that makes any ensemble feel elevated. Some you can even get away with wearing to work. Although you should check with HR first.
