I have a couple of questions...does anyone know what color Kate Moss's blue weekender is? 2005 teal or sky blue maybe? Secondly, which of the more recent blues offered would most closely resemble that blue? Cornflower? any suggestions?

the closest blues are the sky blue from 2005, or maybe the blue glacier that's coming out in march...
