BLUSHING

I've always loved the color pink. When I was a little girl I had a huge collection of pink piggies, my favorite animal still. I squeal at the sight of them and dream about one day owning one. After college, I went through a phase where everything I purchased for my kitchen was pink. I'm a proud owner of this mixer. Then somewhere along the way my color preferences morphed into black-and-white monochrome. I can't really pinpoint why it happened. Maybe it was a mood shift or maybe I felt influenced by my male-dominated, corporate culture. Black and white is clean and simple - two adjectives I always crave. However, lately, I'm naturally gravitating again to my old friend - the color that immediately puts a smile on my face - pink.

I found this pretty pink set at Zara. The trousers are are a little thinner than I'd like (be careful with your panty choice), but I love the high waist and how they move and feel. My heels were an unbelievable Nordstrom Rack find, and my hair and make-up was provided by Glamsquad (more to come).

How do you feel about the color pink? Do you shy away from it or are you in love with it too?
