Oh Wednesdays we wear pink - ok let's be honest even the most non-girlie of girls can embrace this feminine color. There's hot pink, fuchsia, pastel pink and the most lightest of lights blush pink. Pink is a fun color and there's no reason it can't be embraced in a professional setting. The key is styling.
You want your pink pieces to be polished when wearing to the office. Tailored structured pieces are best or pair with such. I feel that most gals go dark when it comes to looking professional. That stigma drives me crazy! The truth is that lighter shades are equally as powerful and give a clean fresh appearance.
This pink skirt is very structured in a mod design. I love a good retro vibe! It's higher waisted and flairs just a touch. In this boxy cut and shorter length it's very reminiscent of the '60's (without the go-go boots of course).
For a less playful look I styled this skirt with a crisp sleeveless dress shirt (perfect for this crazy hot weather that seems to be never ending) and topped it off with a camel blazer; grey or navy would look nice too. This dress shirt actually has purple and pink pin dots throughout but is difficult to see in these pics. Even a subtle pattern adds interest.
For the weekend pair with sandals/wedges and a tank or tee. Whenever Fall does decide to grace us with it's cooler temps pair with boots/booties and a cardigan/denim jacket.
Note: I found these large pockets flattering on my hips/thighs.
Dress Beautifully in Pink
