A light blue-green color like the sky or heavens; having a heavenly or sky-like quality.
From Latin 'caelestis' meaning 'of the sky' or 'heavenly,' derived from 'caelum' (sky, heaven). This word poetically describes anything that relates to or resembles the sky and stars.
Celeste literally means 'from the sky' in Latin—and it's such a beautiful word that it became both a color name AND a popular girl's name, meaning the wearer is 'heavenly'! Medieval paintings used 'celeste' blue for the robes of saints and Mary, making the color sacred and otherworldly.
