I’ll be the first one to admit that bright pink is NOT my color. I love all shades of blush (that, you already know), but other than that, I don’t own a lot of items in the pink department. Not to over share, but I used to associate the color with PeptoBismal, which I had an unfortunate experience with as a child. You can call it an aversion or whatever, but for YEARS, I refused to buy or wear pink.
Since I’m now an adult (for arguments sake, let’s just say I am), I’m slowly dipping my feet back into the water… every now and then I’ll see a pink piece I really love, but just don’t pull the trigger. This purchase, however, was easy. This dress is under $120 and in a classic shift silhouette. Because it’s solid and unmarked by embellishments or extra details, it’s a simple style that will be easy to wear and re-wear over and over again with different accessories.
This inexpensive number is a wonderful option for a more casual engagement party or rehearsal dinner, or just a fun option for a night out with the girls (or a date!). I love pairing it with another bright shade like my turquoise ODLR earrings – both colors do a great job of making each other pop, don’t you think?

The pink + blue is so beautiful together – also love the touch of metallic with the clutch!
So you may not think pink is your color, but it looks so amazing on you! Love the color combo and your hair pulled back like that!
You’re glowing in pink! I have to say that I love this color on you :)

I am obsessed with this dress. Love the silhouette, and the bright pink is one of the only colors I wear (I’m a neutrals girl). It’s especially great with the turquoise earrings. So cute!
