Pretty in pink

I'll be honest... the colour pink does nothing for me. Don't get me wrong, I don't have a strong aversion to it. After all, some of the best things in life are pink - pink lemonade anyone? But pink clothing on me just looks... wrong. The other day I was having a browse on the Missguided website and I can't explain how or why, but I was drawn to anything and everything pink:

Polka dot shift dress - £24.99
 Hether textured tailored boyfriend fit coat - £54.99
 Marlee checked A-line skirt - £19.99
Annie checked skater dress - £24.99

I don't know what's wrong with me. Maybe I'm just getting caught up with everything leading up to Valentine's Day. There are so many pinks and reds in the shops at the moment, maybe I've been subconsciously brainwashed. Or maybe it's the sheer amount of baby pink coats I've seen cropping up all over the blogosphere. I am planning my next shop as we speak. So far my basket is composed of pastels and muted shades - a colour palette inspired by Love Heart sweets it seems. Whether I'm ready for it or not, my girly / whimsical side is definitely emerging. Watch this space...
