In the Pink

When I plan my outfits for the week, I try and diversify color, pattern, skirts vs. pants, but sometimes, even with an outfit plan for the week, I inevitably steer back to my favorites – and this week that favorite was the color pink. I love pink, all shades of it, but my sweet spot is definitely the bright/fuschia tone of pink. Reviewing my photos for this week, I wore my fair share of pink.

Day 1 – Monday 12/2

My original plan was to wear a hot pink crewneck with the shirt layered underneath but I feel like that’s been my standby lately, so out came the blazer and somehow it all worked. I planned the outfit around the necklace, and was pleased with the outcome. I’m trying to style these pants with colors other than black or ivory!! Here’s a closeup of the necklace and shirt/blazer:

Day 2 – Wednesday 12/4 evening

This was a slight recycle of my outfit from the previous Sunday but it was a quick and easy toss together to head out to an evening party – I’ll be honest, I don’t do much in the way of social events during the week, so my outfits during the week are mostly work related, and if I end up going out I swap out jeans and that’s about as crazy as I get…but I was loving this outfit so I swapped in a few leopard accessories and my J.Crew Excursion vest from last year and off we went.

Day 3 – Friday 12/6

I had my holiday lunch for work this day and after a few tries of “holiday” type outfits, I ended up with pink and silver – shocker. I finally scored these Banana Republic pants on popback, and while they’re more silver than I expected, they are a solid addition to my holiday wardrobe. Now I just have to work on more red items, since that’s where I seem to be lacking. I’ve got a whole lot of bling going on here…while the Tilda blouse has become a regular favorite of mine, I am sort of wishing I had a non bejeweled version. I love that it’s sleeveless so it doesn’t create a lot of extra bulk underneath the Tippi sweater and while I can always appreciate bling, sometimes I’m ok with one necklace.

Day 4: Saturday 12/7

Onward to the weekend…the usual errands and Christmas tree day! The temps are back down in the 20s, so once again, even though I thought flats were a nice thought, they weren’t practical. So the first photo is the “if it weren’t 20 degrees out, I’d rock this look” and the second look is pre-necklace and with more weather appropriate footwear 🙂 I am loving this button down – it’s the strawberry plaid boy shirt from J.Crew and I grabbed it on my Black Friday online shopping. It is much prettier than the website even depicted. And it will go well with my abundance of pink sweaters!

So there you have it, my week of pink outfits. What do you think? Too much pink in a week? Any favorites? Would love to hear what you think and thanks for visiting!
