Going Rogue In A Pink T-Shirt

Going Rogue In A Pink T-Shirt

While we were taught to associate pink with girls and blue with boys, it’s time to renounce such conventional standards and appreciate pink as a color anyone can wear. If you think this flamboyant color is best reserved for small accessories or statement pieces, don’t let the myths surrounding this cotton-candy color let you shy away from sporting a simpler statement piece.

For a rosy outlook on your wardrobe, quash the pink cliches and update your plain tee to a blush-hued T-shirt.

Color Clash

While pairing your pink tee with a flaming red piece seems taboo, the key to mastering it is all about fit and proportion. Avoid looking like the mascot for Valentine’s Day and dial up the sophistication with a fitted cropped shirt and slim, ruby high-waisted bottoms. Add a pair of ankle-strapped neutral heels and a dainty gold bangle as the subtle finishing touches to this vibrant ensemble.

Pink-Collar

If you haven’t heard yet, real men do wear pink. A touch of the pastel shade doesn’t diminish your masculinity, but simultaneously brightens and polishes up your usual dark attires. Opt for a preppy polo or a fitted crew neck tee to contrast your dark wash denim and mahogany-tinted oxfords.

Pink Rebel

Contrary to tradition, pink isn’t just reserved for the romantics or girly girls at heart. Let your edgy aesthetic flourish by pairing a printed tee with a no-nonsense leather jacket and distressed skinnies. By ushering the color into the dark side, you’ll be rebelliously pretty in pink.

Going Solo

Take a note from the memorable Elle Woods and do a monochromatic fuschia ensemble justice by playing with textures and keeping accessories to a minimal. Whether you go for a subdued blush or a vibrant neon, pair a sleeveless shirt with bottoms in a similar tint. Stray from tacky and experiment with materials like chiffon and leather for a glowing ensemble that’ll have heads turning.

When it comes to mastering the art of wearing pink, contradict the misconceptions and you won’t be blushing in your pink T-shirt.

Give this pastel hue a chance. Rethink pink with a rosy T-shirt.
