PINK me Up!

This week Lauren Loves…

We’ve seen countless new trends this season from distressed jeans to dazzling metallics, but the one that has caught my eye was this Fall’s hot pink statement dress. Since I’m a girl who adores wearing dresses, I must say that it was love at first sight and though many people feel that this color only belongs in Victoria’s Secret, this season the runway disagrees!

Wearing bright colors can sometimes bring up a Cheap vs. Chic situation, but I’m here to tell you how you can pull of this vibrant color while still looking fabulous and totally stylish!

Ladies, if you really are interested as much as I am in wearing this daring color, opt for a dress that’s simple and sleek with clean modern lines, like this great find from Lulu’s, when it comes to picking a silhouette.  You should also “K.I.S.S.” when it comes to your accessories!

When picking out the perfect pair of shoes to go with your pink dress, opt for a nude color or one that has a splash of pink in it.  I love the way Micheal Kors showed off this exact look in his fall collection so don’t be afraid to have fun in the shoe department!  Open-toe pumps or sandals are also a great option because you don’t want to pair this upbeat, bright color with a heavy shoe!

And if you’re not a dress girl, but you can’t live without this color, no worries… hot pink is being seen in everything from shoes and pants to shirts and jackets!!
