Hot Pink
September 20th, 2007The bright colours that we were promised in Spring and Summer seem to have found their way through to Autumn. Albeit a little late, I’m not complaining. Fuchsia, raspberry, magenta and good old shocking pink are back with a vengeance this season. Pink is another 80’s flashback that you’re either going to embrace or abhor. The bright hue is beautiful with basics like black, grey and winter white.
I’m personally a little off pink matched with brown. It’s looking a dash tired, but a pretty combination nonetheless. Try hot pink matched with purple, burnt orange or one of the other jewel tones instead if you’re after a bold and daring look. Two brights don’t make a wrong. If you can’t go head to toe in the colour, then punctuate an outfit with a fuchsia accent instead. It’s the perfect way of adding the fashion element to a modern classic style.

Hey! I’m wearing hot pink accents with black and grey today!
I love the hot pink vest with lime green turtleneck! And that wrap dress is so sexy! LOVE IT!

Looove that pink and black Arden B jacket. Alas, a bit pricey for such a trendy item that I’d likely not wear after this season. Bummer!

I agree with you about pink and brown, which is sad because it’s a natural with my coloring.
I LOVE magenta and I’m astonished at how long it has taken for it to catch on!

What great timing! I just bought a bag today that has plum trim around a simple plaid pattern of hot pink, purple, lavender, and orange squares with lines of purple and yellow. The colors work surprisingly well together.
Unfortunately, the hot pink shoes I tried on with great hopes didn’t look quite right (too much toe cleavage). I’m still looking, though.
