Pretty in pink

I wouldn't say I am the girliest person you could ever meet. In fact, up until a few years ago you would very rarely have seen me in a skirt. But now I like to feel feminin, some days more than others, and I think that splashing pink into an outfit can be just the way to do it. I've always felt that I have to be a bit careful - with long, wavy blonde hair sometimes pink can be a bit much but I think it's good to use it to highlight a look.

Today is a feminin day.

New York Colour - Midtown

A good place to start is with your nails. I don't know about you but I'm one of those people who really uses their hands to express themselves when talking. This had led to a few burns in the kitchen and things over time, but it also has its benefits. My hands are always moving and therefore where ever they move the pink moves with them. I think this is a great way of highlighting a look.

New York Colour is also a great make. It's not too expensive so perfect for any penniless students out there and it glides on beautifully.

Floral tights - Marks and Spencer

Today I have also used tights to bring pink into my outift. These were about £8 from Marks and Spencer and although I often resent spending that much money on tights, I think these ones were worth it. The sun's been hiding again over the last few days and unfortunately I've been feeling the need to cover up a bit again so these are ideal. They allow me to feel girly but warm - and the two do not always come hand in hand around this time of year. I love these litle pink flowers as well - perfect for spring.

Do you wear a lot of pink?
