Pretty in Pink

http://Pretty in Pink

I’m not a “pink girl.”   Even as a little girl, when all the other little girls couldn’t get enough pink, I gravitated toward patterns and stronger colors.  And that continues to hold true to this day, both IRL and in SL.  And yet, there are times when pink is just perfect, when it’s just the right touch of feminine without crossing over into the dreaded area of “too much.”   Perhaps it’s because it’s the palest pink, perhaps it’s because it’s polka dots (I DO love my polka dots lol!), perhaps it’s something else entirely, but in this top, pink was just the perfect choice.  Shrugs, I’ll never be able to pinpoint the why exactly, but what I DO know without doubt is that the overall impact of this outfit goes way beyond the color I chose… it has a serious touch of totally sexy disarray, offering more than a hint of wantonness, yet it doesn’t put a single toe over that line into exhibition…  to me, the pink offers a subtle unspoken contrast to the wantonness, taming it with restrained femininity, creating something totally alluring…
