Pink is the new Pink?

Pink is all over the fashion magazines for Fall. Bazaar did a full page about the incandescent pink trend. I walked past the H&M on 125th street and saw no less than 10 deep pink frocks in the window. Personally, as a flaming redhead I cannot wear pink. Two winters ago, there was a reporter on the local news channel that had red hair. She would wear the most hideous furry pastel pink hat on cold days. It was so bad I wanted to write a letter and tell her never under any circumstances should she wear that hat. It really is too bad because a bold, deep pink jacket or shirt can really make you stand out in a sea of black.

Pink looks beautiful on a dark complected or dark haired person. Even blonds look great in pink. Us poor redheads are just out on this trend. Most of the magazine articles pair it with black and only as an accessory or one item in an outfit. Going head to toe hot pink probably isn't your best bet.

If you are not ready to take the plunge and wear a hot pink shirt, skirt, or pants here is an outfit that gives you bold pink in a small dose.







You can purchase this outfit for $34.99 here.
