STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Think Pink

Style Advice of the Week

As the holidays begin to wind down, I often find myself in a fashion funk. Saddened by the idea that winter break has come to a close, the once delicious prospect of bundling up in cozy sweaters feels tired and overworked. Do you struggle with the same cold weather dilemma? Struggle no longer Fashionistas and Fashionistos, for I have found the cure for your winter wardrobe blues.

No longer reserved strictly for ladies who lunch and school girls under the age of ten, pink has made a chic resurgence as of late in the fashion industry. Pink color pops graced the menswear runways of everyone from the modern Philip Lim to the timeless Burberry Prorsum. Not only for the boys, womenswear designers embraced the pretty hue as well showing punchy pink blouses and dyed leather miniskirts in their collections.

This Fashionisto embodies the spirit of cold weather pastels, looking effortlessly cool in a pair of pink chinos. Opting to keep the focus on his colorful pants, he pairs them with a tailored white dress shirt, classic navy blazer and matching navy tie. Perfectly broken-in, brown, boat shoes complete the look, ensuring that his lively pants do not detract from his preppy personal style. Wearing pink during the winter months may seem intimidating, but it’s remarkably easy! Feeling hesitant? Try incorporating a light pink scarf into a layered neutral outfit for a taste of the color. Feel daring? Pair fitted raspberry denim with a baby pink oxford and brown boots for a look that is stylish and classic.
