Pink is the colour most associated with femininity and love. Pink, in its myriad of hues, can also signify notions of tenderness, passion and playfulness. Whatever the case is, one thing is for sure: We’re obsessed with the colour.
The fashion world too can’t get enough of this sweet shade. Besides Pantone naming sweet lilac — a soft, powder pink — as one of the colour trends of the year, it doesn’t hurt that the shade looks good on almost everyone. Click through our gallery of pink picks to get an idea of how to best wear the prettiest hue there is.
Made with a cool pink lurex material with a slight metallic sheen, this Stella McCartney skirt wouldn’t look out of place at a party or in the office, when paired with a black satin blouse and strappy heels. Best of all, it has an elasticated waist which makes it easy to slip into, which means it is also undeniably comfortable.
Here’s what we suggest: Roll out of bed, slip into this peach pink jumpsuit, tie the belt to cinch your waist, throw on rose gold jewellery and finish with a pair of white heels. Outfit for the office, sorted.
With a really low neckline at the front, this slinky piece is meant to be paired with another piece underneath. We recommend pairing this Prada dress with a black long-sleeved shirt to make it more dressy, but finish with nude pumps and silver jewellery to complement the cooler blush pink hue.
Look like a #girlboss who is still in touch with her femininity with this two-toned Alexander McQueen blazer. We love that the black panelling adds a slimming effect, especially when you wear the piece with a pair of black cigarette pants.
Saint Laurent took a typical black shirt and turned it into a winning piece, thanks to its pattern of cute pink stars. Wear it french tucked into a pair of black skinnies, throw on a pair of boots and finish with a loose wave ponytail to bring you from work to play on dress down Fridays.
This Oysho cropped bra is perfect for days when you’re dashing between errands and yoga and have no time to change. Just slip into a cute pair of leggings and sneakers and you’ve got a comfy, versatile outfit right there.
Mandarin collars make you look sharp in a jiffy (and they’re easier to iron!). That is why we are loving this pink number which has a relaxed fit. It can be worked with khaki trousers or worn over a bikini by the beach.
Here’s how to create a bangin’ date look: Take this blue-pink crop shirt from Pomelo Fashion, slip into a pair of high-waist wide-legged trousers and finish with pointed heels. Accessorise with pendant necklaces and ditch the stacked bracelets as they will compete with the blouson sleeve detail.
This hot pink Gucci jumpsuit is perfect for your next summer holiday vacation or a weekend brunch with friends and family. You’ll look on point with a silk scarf headband and espadrille wedges.
Weekends are for you to put down your hair and slip into outfits that are more colourful and relaxed, like this pair of pink acid wash jeans from Topshop. A simple knotted white t-shirt would suffice to elevate the look.
Slip dresses are our favourite, simply because they deliver a nice balance between comfort and sexiness. This Zara iteration takes it up a notch with a sassy hot pink shade and a cowl neck silhouette. Finish with black slingback heels.
