Style triumph: Louise Cooney’s take on colourblocking is gorge

Louise Cooney is one Irish blogger who never makes a misstep in the style stakes, and her most recent sartorial choice is no exception. 

The blogger made a major statement using colour at a recent event – and showcased a simple but impactful way to wear colour. 

Going matchy-matchy with your colour scheme is a huge trend for S/S19, with designers like Jeremy Scott and Matty Bovan sending their models down the catwalk in turtlenecks layered under matching coloured trench coats, and shirts layered over cycling shorts of the same shade.

Attending a Clarins beauty event yesterday evening, the YouTuber looked anything but jet lagged in a monochrome cobalt outfit following a trip to Los Angeles. 

Over on her Instagram, Louise detailed that her look was from a medley of high street stores – her roll neck jumper from H&M, and her side knotted skirt from Zara. 

Neither items are still available online, however her sock boots can still be found on Nasty Gal, and her L-shaped necklace is a Penneys bargain. 

Jumper €13.00, Knotted Skirt €65.00, Sock Boot €23.50

Her look can be achieved with similar items in a more neutral shade – we're loving it's adaption in a muted grey. 

Team a colourblocked outfit with a neutral trench coat, or a clashing faux fur coat in an acid-bright shade. 

However, if it's Louise's choice of colour that has you swooning, here are a selection of gorge pieces in cobalt:
