I recently found these cobalt blue Chinese Laundry suede pumps on sale at Modcloth, and think they are the perfect way to brighten up an otherwise normal blouse and pencil skirt.  I see that 6pm.com has the same pump on sale (link above), so definitely worth checking out if you like the color as much as I do!  They are 3.5 inches high with a really nice cushion in the ball of the foot, so tall enough to look good but also comfortable to wear all day.  For today's outfit, I paired my new cobalt blue suede pumps with a cobalt blue blouse, black pencil skirt, and black back seam tights for a sexy secretary look.

It is so much fun to brighten up a simple outfit like a blouse and pencil skirt with a colorful pair of pumps!  Check out my save and splurge picks for bright blue suede pumps below:
