I know, I know, its been a LONG time since my last post. December kind of took over my life, much like it does with most people. Between going on holiday, festive parties, and endless amounts of rain, I didn't seem to have much time for blogging. BUT its January, and of coarse working on my blog is one of many new years resolutions, and I hope I can stick to it.

Many of my female friends tend to shy away from being overly "girly" which translates into rejecting the colour pink. Personally, I love wearing pink, not only because it looks good on my already pinkish complexion, but also because I like feeling feminine! My two favorite ways to wear pink are:

-Pair it with black for a more dramatic statement; it's girly yet powerfull.
-Pair it with green, an excellent complement to most pink tones.

I also think when wearing more feminine clothes the trick is to not overdo it. I find pairing a flowy or frilly item with a more structured item usually works best. Especially when pairing two girly items together (such as my ruffled pink top and lavender pencil skirt).

Happy New Year, I challenge you all to embrace being the "girly girl" from time to time!
