Wore a baby blue cashmere to work today and received several comments such as "you're very 'spring' today".

Is it such a spring color? It's my favorite color sweater and never considered it seasonal.

Regards.

Most of them wear darker navy blue's and greys. Baby blue wears better on me than those colors do.

Like you, I never adhered to these seasonal color trends and it's interesting that you received similar comments.

I do think there are seasonal colors - in areas of the country where seasons exist. The reason is that the natural color tint of (reflected) sunlight changes a bit with the foliage and the humidity.

So there are probably not seasonal colors in Alhambra, CA, Phoeniz, AZ or Austin Tx or even Seattle - but definitely in the Northeast.
