Pink. Definitely a girl’s color. It’s soft, feminine, and ideally fits well into the vintage chic decor, especially the romantic chic style. I’ve never really considered it a grown up color, probably because it’s usually paired with layers and oodles of lace and roses and marketed for a young girl’s room. In my opinion, white on white on white works but pink on pink on pink does not. But I can’t exclude the color altogether, and I have discovered some inspiring images that prove pink can be pretty and sophisticated at the same time.
The first images use pale pinks mostly as background color and provide a subtle and soft yet serious attitude.
For a bit bolder look, here are some mid-century retro inspired looks using a spot of pink as statement toward a quirky and unique attitude.
And finally here are some more traditional, romantic uses of pink that don’t go overboard, but have just the right amount of pink to stay feminine but not send the males running away!
