You already know what you have in your closet and what you're comfortable with and used to love. What you need are a few extra accessories to jazz it up a bit. And don't be afraid of experimenting — this season won't be neat and polite. It's all about hot and effortless looks — dirty sneakers, tousled hair and bold combos of clothes.
You would never think about wearing pink pants as they are too girly and cheesy for you? Dare yourself this time around. Pink might become your power colour if you just rock it a bit with some vintage pieces and rock accessories. Or maybe light pink sneakers and red trousers? These are the looks you just have to own.
For very long, the colour pink had been associated with being girlie, and grown-up women hardly used to wear it, but come winter, and we see pink all around. The intervening years have been a Barbie-flavoured tsunami of 'Keep Calm' cupcakes and chicklit... Candy pinks and petal shades predominate this season. If you want to take on the new pink palette, then here are a few pointers that you need to keep in mind.
Keep it ladylike
Remember Hitchcock heroines? They were a popular autumn/winter touchstone, along with round shoulders, dirndl skirts and other 50s details. In that atmosphere, pink had to happen. Choose modest, unfussy pieces to capture the current mood. We're doing Grace Kelly, not Britney.
No head-to-toe
We're not asking you to drench yourselves in pink from top to bottom because in real life, that's probably not an option. You need to learn to embrace the contrast between blossom tones and cozy fabrics. Greys and well-worn denim will look as great as ever, even black goes very well with pink, but the hottest combination to try out is rose and tomato. There is a pink for everyone — and it might not be the shade you expect. Candy pinks aren't just for so-called English roses. Get a neon fix and mix it up with the pink in your wardrobe and see the magic.
Office romance
Why shouldn't you blush some pink at work? If you work in a corporate environment and don't want to stand out more than you want to stand out, go for something unadorned. Plus, you can always repeat the words of Diana Vreeland to yourself, "Pink is the navy blue of India".
A word to the wise — this colour is not just a classic, it's aesthetically immortal.
