Style Theory: The grey winter days always draw me towards a soft, pink palette, it seems to make your skin glow and will add a little, subtle touch for colour to your winter/spring and summer 2016 wardrobe.
The SS16 catwalks were full with differing shades of pinks, from pale pink organzas to soft tulles to pleated fuschias mixed with golds (Isabel Marant) and reds (Chanel)...

As you can see above pink featured in so many designer's SS16 collections and it will therefore follow suit on the high street. The fashionistas on the street were quick to pick up on this colour trend wearing pink with aplomb..

So how does this translate down to the high street? The colour is coming through in knitwear, dresses and accessories. Mix with neutrals (greys, camels, denim and black) or clash up with merlot and red to create eyecatching, feminine looks...

My Style
Last days of Christmas holidays, I have worn this cardigan non stop (a Christmas present from my Mum and Dad) love love it!
Cardigan - American Vintage @Quattrorish £110 Dungarees - H&M Old Sweater - Boden Bag - Gucci @Selfridges £650 Bangle - Black and Sigi Shoes - Topshop £12 (sold out) |
So I, for one, adore pink and will be buying a few pieces this season to add colour to my wardrobe. I will still be sizing up on all sweaters so they are slouchy and baggy and will be keeping trousers and jeans neat and skinny (although current Christmas excess weight makes this slightly tricky!)
Are you a fan of pink, will you be indulging in this colour trend this year? As always I would love to hear your thoughts and comments, until next time Frances xx
Pink is my FAVE colour and still obsessing over your bloody pink coat which I cannot find ANYWHERE! Ha ha... I will not give up this mission!
ReplyDeleteI did order a pink sweatshirt recently but it's going back - I died a little in it but it was the shade that was wrong more than anything. But I am thinking about it ... I am a trier.
ReplyDeleteLove your cardigan, it really suits you (love those topshop shoes too). I suit stronger pinks, I think, but I love love it with greys. Those &otherstories sunglasses are lovely. As for the fuchsia scarf... good job it is far too expensive!
ReplyDeleteHi, I love that pink cardigan. What size do you have? Do you know where I can get it, or am I too late?! It's sold out at Quatroish.
