Valspar

Lingerie Blue

V034-1

Lingerie Blue is a light sky blue with a soft gray base. It feels airy and gentle. Bedrooms, baths, laundry rooms, and ceilings suit this kind of fresh blue.

White tile keeps the sky tone clear. Cream trim eases the coolness. In northern exposure, it may feel more gray than blue. Pale wood and brushed nickel keep the finish simple. Warm bulbs soften it.

Lingerie Blue in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
