Blue is a good color. It has such a wide variety of usage. The icy blue in this halter dress pairs nicely with the gray halter neck tie. This dress is such a fun dress. I like the morphing from color to color. It's a lighter ombre than most of the ombres I've been seeing this season and I like it. Since it's a more causal cut, this dress could be brought out for a nice day time party of even a casual evening one.
