Pink


I like pink. Sometimes I even find myself feeling love for the color pink. However, I hardly ever wear pink! Why is it that someone can like or even love a color on its own, but not deem it suitable for outfits? I just don't feel like pink looks sophisticated on me I guess. Pink gets so cheap, so easily. I think it works in combination with other pretty colors, but it's still so hard to get just right, especially if you don't want to go the eighties powerdressing neon colors way. But I really love this dress: soft and feminine on one hand, and eye-catchingly vibrant on the other. And all that for just 10 euro! Not bad at all.
I was pushing it a bit with the bare legs and sandals since it's only about 15° celsius during the day over here, but it was lovely and warm in our backyard where I spent my afternoon studying, so I went a little  bare and crazy. I'm totally living on the edge yo.

dress: etsy (calico vintage)
clogs: H&M
trenchcoat: Pimkie


And my vibrant pink lips make me so happy.

    Just amazing!! That dress....amazing!! I don't know how else to describe how much I love it =D And the sandals too, I really want some that height for summer, may have to go scope out H&M. And the pink lips are perfect too, pretty much just love everything about this! And I've been going bare legged too the last few days despite the fact it's about the same temperate here, making the most of the sun!!

    Oh I wouldn't think of wearing bare legs unless it was closer to 30 degrees celcius, but I'm such a weenie in the cooler temps:)

    I have the same thoughts about pink... I like it and yet worry how it makes me come across... Oh, I like your rainbow assortment of shoes, by the way!

    Beautiful dress. I don't wear a lot of pink either, I like a soft toned down pink but not much else! It seems to work on other though.

    This dress is really quite fabulous. I love pink, but don't wear a lot of it either. It's really a hit or miss colour. Although I have a few summer dresses in pink, much easier to wear pink in summer. Great shoes

    That dress is so pretty! I usually don't wear much pink either, though I don't hate it or anything! Clearly, it seems I must check out H&M to see their selection of spring shoes! Those are great.

    That dress is so gorgeous! I know what you mean about pink getting tacky really easily, but you're workin' it here! I love the lipstick too, I've been searching (unsuccessfully) for a good pink lipstick!

    I love the bright colours of the shoes & dress with the neutral trench. I've never bought shoes at H & M before but now want to go check out their selection.

    Oh girl you always make me happy in the morning when i see your post. that dress is stunning, i love to see the bright colors. it look amazing with your skin and hair. again the cut is perfect. i adore the combination with the trench. spring is the perfect season to wear a trench because you never know what can happen. the shoes are perfect with the outfit. the color of the trench and the green are phenomenal together.

    i love all the colors! beautiful... i feel ya with the love for certain colors but not being the most wearable... most pastels do not work for me at all. pink looks good in moderation i think!
