I'm Feeling Pink Today!

-




Not in a million years I would have considered buying myself anything in pink color, not even lingerie. 


Pink color has always resonated with me as a 'Barbie doll' color. When I think of pink color, I think of Paris Hilton, and it's not the image that attracts me - [in comparison to, let's say, black color - when I think of black, I think of Donna Karan's cashmere classic, YSL sexy pantsuit, Alexander McQueen's Savage Beauty, Carine Roitfeld's smoky eyeliner, Kate Moss' Hunter boots, Bvlgari Jasmin Noir, black caviar...) But then again, I've never considered wearing anything 'orange' either, but here I am - wearing something in orange every other day...

I guess, the color preferences change over time. I remember seeing my mom wearing only subtle colors of gray, black, blue, and brown and I remember asking her, why she is not wearing much color? She would respond: "When you grow up, you'd understand..." And I did.

I've been very much into black, brown, beige, blue colors myself in the past few years of my adult life - more than I've been when I was a kid. Parents have this privilege of blaming 'childhood' for dressing their kids in pink, orange, yellow colors - the brights - something that they'd never be able to do with adult kids. Well, I guess, after having succumbed to the orange color, I'm slowing entering the 'pink area', although, according to my immediate predictions - I still don't see myself wearing too much of pink, however, a 'hint of color' would never hurt any of us.

Here are my latest pink and coral purchases:

  It's been my fifth year in a row spending Christmas in College Station, Texas - a town that I would have never thought I'd end up going to more than I do to any other places in the world. [How many times I wished my parents settled in places like Paris, London, Florence, Split, Berlin, or at least - in San Francisco and/or Washington, DC - the places that I'd be more than happy to visit them at more often!] So, it's a true battle when the holidays or vacation times come - to go visit my parents in Texas or to go to Paris, Amsterdam or Tokyo - or places I've never visited before? - a battle that I often loose in favor of my parents, and, thus - in favor of the little Texan town, College Station...

The spring is almost here, which means - soon-to-be-packed and stored away winter boots are in much need to be replaced with the next sexy-thing on the shoe markets. And not just replaced with any shoes, but with the shoes that make a statement. That is - a  big city kind of statement. These should be the ultimate shoes for both a stylish day and night out on a city. Here's what I call statement shoes perfect for many reasons, including for the reasons appreciate a good piece of art, nature and sexiness in the details:
