Bing On Your Cherry

red and pink

Mara Hoffman Dress, Alexandra DeClaris Clutch, Louboutin Heels, Essie ‘Boxer Shorts’ Nail Polish

I’ve always loved the combination of red and pink. When I first starting wearing the colors together, it was in the form of coordinating rubberbands on my braces. And yet somehow, even though the shades are both innately feminine, they manage not to look too saccharine when worn at the same time. When I saw this dress (especially since it coordinated with Shopbop’s sale last week), I knew it was the ideal piece for any dressy occasion. The silhouette is sophisticated, but the thin cut-outs along the sides keep it from feeling too serious.

    I love your blog and this color combo looks great on you! However, I feel like the dress is a modern day twist on what Julia Roberts wore in Pretty Woman and the length is awful. This is the first outfit I haven’t loved on you!

    Love this dress. It really emphasizes the hourglass shape of your body! I never realized how tiny your waist was :)

    You look great! That color really suits your skintone and I think it fits your personality too! Every woman wearing femmine colors with confidence, will surely be noticed for all the right reasons!

    I love too the combination of red and pink: last summer I wore a fantastic LPD (Little Pink Dress ;) ) of a friend of mine with a gorgeous pair of red heels and it was amazing!! :)
