Pink is in fashion now ever since Barbie and Mean Girls made waves at the box office and spurred women everywhere to break up the monotony of all that red, green, purple, and blue and embrace a powerful colour that makes one stand out very easily from the crowd. Pink is the colour of positivity and girl power, so if you want to jump on the Barbie core trend with that beautiful pink dress, here is a look at ways to style it up and feel seen.

Finding your perfect pink

When choosing the right accessories for your pink dress, you might find it helpful to consider tips on how to dress for church to ensure a balanced and elegant look.

There’s a wide variety of pink shades so it’s important to identify the one that flatters your complexion the most. Different kinds of pinks can be classified into warm, cool, or neutral shades.

Cherry pink, fuchsia pink, salmon pink, and other brighter pink shades with warm undertones are the best for individuals with darker skin. On the other hand, rosy or peachy pink shades look cool on olive skin tones. For those with a fair complexion, consider pale pinks and avoid shades with hints of orange.

Alternatively, if you want to create a sophisticated look for a formal occasion, consider dusty rose, blush, and blush pink. For casual outings, watermelon, bubble-gum, and other brighter shades of pink will work magic for your confidence.

What colour shoes to wear with a pink dress?

Pink pairs well with a variety of colours depending on the effect you want to achieve. Pair your pink dress with classic black pumps if you want a chick and polished look. These kinds of shoes, especially the ones with a slingback go well with everything, including pink.

You definitely don’t want to wear a black sneaker or boots when going for a classic chic style. Classic black pumps will add a touch of polish and charm to your look. Alternatively, choose silvery pumps for a touch of glamour.

Pair your pink dress with white sandals or if you want to give summery and feminine vibes. The clean and crisp white sandals will contrast well against your pink dress for a refined and soft look.  If you like playing with colours, you can try different shades of pink from head to toe for a monochromatic look or choose yellow or green flats for a bold and fun look.

 

What to accessorise a pink dress?

Accessorising a pink dress is not hard. Totes, clutches, handbags and crossbody bags are all okay with pink dresses. And just like selecting shoes to go with the dress, you can experiment with black, white and nude colour bags for a timeless look or silver and gold for a metallic touch. For example, pair your pink dress and classic black pumps with a white or cream crossbody.

Jewellery is also okay. Throw in a delicate piece to balance the boldness of your pink dress or something along the lines of energetic hues of yellow and red for striking contrast and playful twist. Alternatively, experiment with silver or gold jewellery for a metallic touch.

Pink is an ever-flattering colour that’s easy to style in fun, bold, vibrant and sophisticated ways.  It pairs well with black, white and nude for a timeless, soft and polished look and red, orange and yellow for a bold fashion statement.
