Think Pink

I’ve just finished reviewing my August copies of UK (Harper’s) Bazaar, Vogue and In Style magazines…and whether you call it “A Rose Bouquet” (Vogue), or “Blush Up” (In Style), what all these magazines have in common, is that they’re thinking pink for AW2013.

“Think Pink” (Bazaar) is their take on THE colour for the autumn winter 2013-2014 season, from the catwalk collections.

For those of you old enough to remember (that’s me!) and for Hollywood movie fans, this phrase is taken from the song “Think Pink”, which featured in the Audrey Hepburn film “Funny Face” in 1957.

Maggie Prescott (aka Anna Wintour in todays’ world) feels the July issue of her magazine “Quality” is too boring and chooses a pink theme to brighten up the issue. She endorses the women of America to banish the black, burn the blue, bury the beige and think pink!

For those of you who haven’t seen the film – I’ve found a great clip of the song on You Tube for you to watch here…

Not sure which shade of pink suits you best? Don’t worry this season you can wear the palest pink to the deepest burgundy and still be right on trend…
