May 2012 Lookbook: How to Look Pretty in Pink
May 14th, 2012
This look is part of Omiru’s May 2012 Lookbook series, which builds upon our 16-Piece May 2012 Capsule Wardrobe. See more information about this look.
When you wear pink, you can’t help but smile just a little bit wider. What we love about this cheerful color is how it breathes life into your look. So when we wear it, we often end up piling on the pink instead of opting for a single piece. By varying the shades of pink - and playing with pattern - the resulting look is feminine without feeling overly girly. Here’s how to get the look:
1. Start with the signature piece - an ombre patterned blouse that goes from peach to pink.
2. A piece like this ombre blouse needs a serious foundation - try a pair of colorblocked piped shorts for a look that’s perfectly polished. Added bonus? The peach panels on this pair of shorts echoes the peach on the blouse.
3. Continue the red and pink theme with your accessories - a bright red pair of cat-eye sunglasses, a pair of red and pink heels.
4. Finish off the look with a statement accessory - a top handle handbag in a vibrant floral print.
