Hex color #aab6f7 graphic
Forget the heavy, moody indigo you might expect. #aab6f7 is a pastel take on the hue, light and gently desaturated, so it reads fresh instead of deep. Its cool undertone suits spring themes, baby products, and calm UI backgrounds, and black text sits on it with contrast to spare. Pair it with charcoal or muted plum rather than white, which can wash it out.
