Brittany And Patrick Mahomes' Family Easter Outfits Nail Spring 2024's Light-Blue Color Trend

Spring ushers in a new host of fresh and fervent colors that continue to revitalize — even if they're well expected — year after year. From light lavender and blush pink to pale green and soft yellow, this pastel color palette is synonymous with budding tulips and bunny ears. And this year, power couple Brittany and Patrick Mahomes incorporated one of the season's muted hues into their Easter getups: sky blue. This light and breezy tone also just so happens to be a trending color of 2024, easily accessible through light denim and pale-blue gingham prints.

The Mahomes family emulated this color trend beautifully in a few snapshots posted on Easter Sunday by Brittany, whose style transformation has been nothing short of stunning. The fitness trainer and retired soccer star wore a sky-blue dress with puff sleeves, while Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick wore a sky-blue polo shirt and acid-wash jeans. And their darling little ones donned matching sky-blue gingham print getups. The charming family could've done a combination of pastels, but stuck to the color of the moment for a cohesive set of Easter portraits, fully nailing the trend. Ahead are some tips for incorporating 2024's light-blue color trend into your life this spring.

Blue evokes serenity and calmness, as well as creativity. If you want to channel that peaceful energy and mirror the Mahomes family this season, only in a more casual and less holiday-ready manner, all you need are a few pale-blue pieces to work with. Light-wash denim is an obvious go-to and as wide-leg jeans are trending, opting for a sky-blue pair makes total sense. Sky-blue basics, like tops and tanks, are another obvious route to take — just pair them with neutral bottoms or go for a monochromatic set. 

What's more, celebs like Katie Holmes and Hailey Bieber have been spotted sporting sky-blue ballet flats this spring, which is a perfect collaboration of the balletcore fashion aesthetic and the sky-blue craze, bringing us a delicate and demure meeting of the two. Handbags, scrunchies, bangles — sky blue is a versatile color, and accessories shouldn't be overlooked.

Light-blue manicures and eyeshadow should also be considered to embody the energy of the trend, and to that end, there are tons of amazing blue nail polishes you can buy. As we emerge from wintertime hibernation, sky blue represents a gentle transition into the longer, sunnier days ahead.
