Pretty in Pink

I will admit that I am not a huge fan of pink. However, with the change of seasons upon us and Atlanta's own Dogwood Festival kicking off this week, I took notice of the beautiful pink hues of the Dogwood Tree, which is my grandmother's favorite.

There are many variations of pink, but...as I stated, I am not a fan of pink, I tried to use the pale pink hue to create the inspiration board below of dresses in this family. Pink is a neutral color and can be combined with others to make an impact. Colors such as green, chocolate, grey, black, and purple. As stated, there are many variations of pink, from the palest most fainest of pink to the dramatic, deep and rich magenta. So do not be hindered by the combinations I give below.
