THERE'S PINK ..... AND THEN THERE'S PINK ..........



Don't tell anyone but I've never really been a lover of pink ..... being a bit of a tomboy as a child, I steered well clear of that girlie, girlie colour and the dislike of the colour crossed over into adulthood 'till this day but ..........
THERE'S PINK and then THERE'S PINK !!!!























I guess that there are some pinks that are just BEAUTIFUL .......... just don't tell anyone that I told you ..... I don't wish to ruin my anti-pink reputation!!!!!

  7. I may have to reconsider my love for Schiapperelli's Shocking Pink!!!
    These pinks (especially the ballet shoes and the sunset!) are devine.

  10. Dear Jackie,
    thank you for those lovely images! I adore pink - but only as a dash of colour to some other clothes (you'll always find one piece on me), and only that soft pink, not the garish shrill one. (My pink is more on the cool side, not the apricot way) It is such a becoming colour when getting a bit on in years - and an eye-catcher. As I am a person who knows what she wants I never saw it as a submissive to a special female role (though I own the book 'Think pink!' - a social study about women).

  17. Hi Jackie! So much beauty over here! I love peach, I guess the new name is blush. But I've always loved it. When I was about 12 I had my mom paint my room peach. Pink is almost peach and I love it too...just not as much. Your secret is safe with me:) Love that manicure!

  20. Oh but you did this pink post right!

  21. I think a pink top hat would suit you to a tee! I have been back and forth on pink through the years ~ loved it in the 80's ~ hated it in the 90's but have worked it back in with a few odd pieces the last few years. I guess I will always be a girly girl. xoxo

  22. Oh Jackie what can I say, you have me blushing but please be confident that your secret will be safe with me. The tone of pinks you selected deserve their own colour name or at least spelled like P...Ink.

  27. Pale pink and flesh colors are easy to live with.
    My wedding Bouquet was Oceania roses, a delicate
    soft pinkish white.
    That Pink Divinity candy looks good.

  31. I think that this post has inspired me to begin to appreciate pink again. I feel like pink might be one of those colors that is grossly misjudged. All of these pictures are so beautiful. I won’t tell if you won’t!
