I swore off pink at the middle of summer 2004. i was so sick of seeing it EVERYWHERE it made my stomach turn and I didn't want to ever wear it again. I am almost at the point where I can tolerate more muted shades of it...but Barbie pink? no, never again. I think I'd be up for the muted shades this spring, but things like the bright Prada shoes in her s/s 06 ads? Not attractive to me at all, not even in accessories.
