passionate pink

It’s the flush in your cheeks, the sparkle in your eye, and the flutter in your heart that reveals the rarity of true love. Pink plays well with passion. It’s feminine and flirty, with warmth that will make you glow. It’s not just any pink though. It’s a burnt pink. A pink that’s not as bright as fuschia, and not quite as heated as hot-pink. It’s subtle, alluring, and practically made to intrigue. Pull it out before Valentine’s day, if you want to secure a date. Or wear it to make your honey’s pupils grow to the size of quarters when you walk in on Valentine’s day. I know, it sounds manipulative – but it’s much more enticing and less obvious than lingerie. Although, it’s a double whammy if you wear lingerie underneath it. That’s almost unfair to the poor guy … he’ll be babbling.

      Stunning. I used to hate pink, many years ago. Then a few years after I had Sarah I started warming up to some shades of pink. And not I love it, as long as it's not overdone and Barbie-looking. And this is definitely not. This is fabulous!

      So funny b/c I didn't like pink until I had two boys. It is so “male” in my house I needed a little pink! Glad you like – Thanks

      What a sassy and upbeat outfit! Darling! People say redheads shouldn't wear pink, but those are also the people who need rules to figure out how to dress. Meh.

      And I am seriously digging those shoes…and they are so not “me.” Maybe they are now…
