LOVE this! I just bought a pair of bright peachy pink pants from H&M that I plan on wearing alot now but Im thinking come fall winter when everything is so dreary it will be really refreshing to see this bright pink.

Also loving the pink lips... where can I find a color like that?!

 

[ChrissyM]

i agree about the pink lips... the color is surprisingly refreshing!

i don't know how i'll feel about it if i see it in real life, but i'm liking it on the runway

^I love pink lips, but it really has to be done with a complete nude look on the rest of the face otherwise it tends to look a bit clownish

I would def stay away from the pink fur but otherwise I agree with most that it's really great unless you're completely covered in it

I love it. The only kind of pink I like.

I wouldn't wear it head to toe but two or three pieces would make an outfit pop.

 

[RachelleChar]

this looks great!! would brighten up a winter outfit for sure

i'm not a big fan of it...
i don't really like pink, when it's just a little it can look really great, but this is just too much (and too bright) pink for my taste. makes me think of barbie to be honest

I prefer fluorescent pink. That Nina Ricci dress is a great use of pink. Not overwhelming and the two shades break it up a bit. Many designers use bright pink just as a striking color, but the Nina Ricci dress evokes more to me, neon lights, flame...

I think bright pink can be used effectively, but when it starts going into Barbie or Paris Hilton territory, no thanks.

I <3 bright pink.

i think it's cool when bright pink is used like a bright accent. and i love that outfit with pink lips by antonio berardi!

 

[missrouse]

ohhh how i love the pink!!

 

[CherryPixie]

I think it's great and can look striking if used with moderation. A monochrome outfit with a splish of pink, like a pink skirt or shirt.

It is great color but not if you overdose it à la Paris Hilton/Barbie/Legally Blonde.

i bought a really cool bright pink skirt in topshop this morning.....going to wear it with navy blouse, navy tights and patent heels (or flats) and a comme tux jacket.....and some black pearls...when i find them....pink absolutely needn't be barbie girl....its about working it a classic way with enough edge to show you know what you are doing....

I don't know enough about what Leigh Lezark does when she's not being an "it" girl to be a fan or hater, but I must say her bold use of hot pink is making me re-think my dislike of all shades of pink. She manages to make it look edgy instead of girlish.

nice! thanks for bringing in some "real life" pics... and by that i mean non-runway

it's always nice to see the runway trends translated...

and like helena said.. it's all about how you do it and not going overboard

^^ The first one looks like Valli. It's really gorgeous.

Not exactly from the runway (so I hope I haven't hijacked the thread!) - but I adore this pink jacket from Kaufman (NYC) and I adore pink

I also am feeling this pashmina (from Harrods in London, UK)

More dressed-up takes on bright pink. As much as I like this color, some of these are . I'm still liking Leigh Lezark's outfit the most.

Some casual outfits or accent pieces. (So sorry for the overload of celebrities, I prefer "street" style myself, but these are the easiest to find.)
