From cobalt to sky blue, bring in a breath of fresh air with these stylish updates, says SAM WYLIE-HARRIS

WHETHER you're inspired by summery blue skies, in the mood for a mini makeover, or want to introduce a sense of calm into your scheme, blue is one of our favourite accents.
Displaying an air of serenity, the beauty of blue is how it goes with almost anything. Easy to live with too - like pulling on your favourite pair of faded blue jeans - and works like a dream with neutrals, alongside so many varying shades.
Here's what's caught our eye, from vivid to versatile...
