The Fall fashion lists generally come out around this time every year. Even though we are still mired in the dog days of sweltering hot August summer, we love to look forward to fall. Not only do you have cooler temperatures but a whole new set of looks, colors and textures to wear.

We have been ravenously devouring all the Fall lists and are going to pick apart each one in the coming days. We will start first with People magazine, because they are fun and unlike other magazines that focus strictly on fashion, they give you affordable tips on clothing.

The first thing on their list is Cobalt blue. We gotta say, we were a little wary of this at first. You see, we used to have a kitchen full of those clear cobalt blue dishes that were oh-so-popular for about five minutes a few years ago. And it is still the first thing we think of when we hear that color being mentioned.

We are putting our plate prejudice aside, though and are really loving this look. Now granted, almost everything looks good on a radiant beauty like Eva Longoria. But this color is just the right amount of brightness that it will look good on almost any skin tone. We are not sure we would wear a whole dress of nothing but that color, but a top paired with jeans or black slacks for contrast would look great.
