Long Pink Vest

While I am a big fan of pink (quite a change since my days of no-pink-ever before my blogging days), I usually veer towards the more saturated shades since I find pastel-y hues tend to wash me out. I couldn't resist this piece from BR's new collection though, especially since it hit super-sale recently. So to keep the pale pink from looking too saccharine on me, I threw in a bit of black and denim as contrast and to "toughen" things up a bit. I think I ended up with a winning combo - I am adoring the dressed up mix with the casual pieces together, and the pink that seems "just pink" enough.
