PINK IS THIS SUMMER’S FLAVOR

Summer begins tomorrow, even though it feels as though summer has been hanging out with us all throughout the spring.

As you know, spring is perfect for bright colors. It’s when you can pull out all of your favorite bold prints, patterns, and everything else that matches what spring blossoms. But unlike the fall, you don’t have to change out those bold colors, prints and patterns for deeper tones just to match the season.

The summer is perfect for much of your spring wardrobe. However, it’s not all about putting on the first bright color you see, it’s all about choosing the perfect color shade. It doesn’t matter whether you decide to go with a warmer or softer shade of your favorite bold colors.

When picking your perfect shade, you have to find those colors that compliment you and your skin tone. There are a few major shades of pink that are in for the 2014 season. Watermelon and Fuchsia are two shades that are considered to be warm shades. The softer shades that are in include powder pink, carnation pink and pink nude.

The awesome thing about finding your perfect shade of pink is that you can accessorize it with just about any color. It doesn’t matter whether you wear a softer shade or a warmer shade, pink will look good with many shades of yellows and greens and will also look amazing with honey, ivory, and lavender this season.

In this week’s Style File I created two different boards that show how pretty pink is with different prints and colors. In the board above, I paired a pretty hot pink skirt with a green, white and gold printed crop top. I brought this look together with green and gold earrings, a hot pink ring, and a honey colored handbag with matching heels.

In the board below, I found this pretty fuchsia Neoprene Flounced dress and matched it with a bold teal and added accents of gold in between. Adding the boldness of teal easily turned this pretty pink dress into a flirty oasis.
