Think Pink

On the tail of New York Fashion Week, we are seeing so many trends! As we transition into spring, the fashion industry is starting to warm up. Edible spring hues took over the runways and you could say pretty in pink was trending! All shades of pink are fair game; raspberry, coral, rose and blush! If NYFW didn't get you in the pink mood, maybe this Valentine's Day will! Whether you want to look sweet in pink or hot in the hue, think pink!

Pink was once thought of as girly and feminine. While still true in some cases, you can turn up the heat and create an edgy look that can be far from a country club luncheon! Go as sophisticated as you want with softer shades of the pallet. This lighter hue translates well with chiffon or lighter fabrics. It is ultra flirty and great for date night or brunch with the girls.

In love with neon? (Aren't we all?) Hot pink is, well, HOT! Neon is here to stay and electric pink is no exception. For a go big or go home look, think texture. Play with tulle, silk or a heavy taffeta for an upscale look. The fabric can make all the difference between looking like a circus performer and the ultra chic dame that you are!  Hot pink can complement more than just a neutral such as nude. It can easily be paired with equally bold colors.

Need to ease into the trend? As always you can add that pop of color with accessories. The pink trend will also mix well with gold or rose gold metals. Mix and match your gold jewelry with a soft rose colored bag or express your inner punk with a pink clutch adorned with studs.  Try a hot pink cross-body bag or pink flats. Be lively with a pink jeweled necklace and truly make a statement!
