I love pink (obviously) but sometimes I feel a little hesitant when I'm about to wear it. It's hard enough with the hair to avoid looking like a cartoon character, but matching everything to it makes me think people assume I do it on purpose. I can't help that I'm attracted to everything pink, which is probably why I couldn't wait to get my hands on this dress. It's so pretty that it's worth getting the comments from random strangers. It's still a little tight in the chest, but I think that will change once I stop breastfeeding. I'm holding onto hope!

Kevin, Bianca and I are having our first family portrait taken on Sunday. I try to get pictures of Bianca every three months or so, but we have maybe one or two pictures of the three of us together. Kevin and I always forget to take pictures as a couple and that's always bothered me. I feel like it's even more important now that we have a family. I'll be sure to share some of my favorites here next week, I can't wait!

Oooh! So much rosey, pinky gorgeousness! I love it! Pink is my signature colour and I just finished making myself some pink pants of perfection in hot pink linen :)
ReplyDeleteThat dress is SO pretty on you, and your pink hair is looking so good! I still wish my wig was the real deal! Can't wait to see the family photos! :)

I think it looks perfect with your hair! I love the high neckline of the dress :)

Oh, so pretty! It doesn't feel too matchy with your hair, to me! But your pink hair seems such a natural part of you that I don't really think about it much! And the florals are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I'm dealing with the same thing; some of my clothes are too tight at the bust because of breastfeeding, but I'm hoping that changes once I'm done!

I think that's so cute!! When I had purple or blue streaks in my hair I embraced the "matching" factor when it came to wearing purple or blue clothes...though I would also forget lots of time until someone pointed out that my outfit matched my hair!
ReplyDeleteI don't blame you for sticking to pink---it looks really good against your skin tone. You remind me of Pinkie Pie from MLP (in the best way possible). This dress is so figure-flattering!

I can relate to the pink hair/pink clothes conundrum! You don't look cartoony at all to me, though! The dress is super pretty and suits you perfectly. I love that you topped it off with a leopard belt!
ReplyDeleteHave fun at your family photo shoot, can't wait to see the results :)

I think you pitched it just right with the grey shoes to balance the pink out - lovely! And know what you mean about forgetting to take couple photos - and it's not that easy to get good ones on your own anyway! CC x
ReplyDeleteYou rock pink! Its totally acceptable for you to own all the pink. I was very happy when I saw the cheetah print belt. I recently did an outfit with cheetah shoes and a floral dress and I totally felt like it worked. Also my bf and I totally suck at taking pictures together so any I do ever have I cherish.

It's interesting you think that about wearing pink with your pink hair. Actually before I read that, I thought you look extra amazing in pink because of your pink hair. If I had pink hair I'd wear pink all the time. The dress is super stunning and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteThat dress is gorgeous and it looks like it was made for you!
ReplyDeleteI can see how randoms would wonder if you matched it to your hair on purpose, but whatever. Pink is a great colour and you clearly know how to rock it.
OHHH I can't wait to see the family photos. You guys are going to be adorable!

This dress is gorgeous! I love the floral print and of course all the pink! Pink is just so pretty, haha I'm the same way with dark grey. I just want to buy everything in dark grey/black before I realize that everything in my shopping cart is so dark :P
ReplyDeleteAnd the family portrait taking sounds like it'll be a lot of fun! :)
The print on that dress is so darling (: and it has such a flattering fit!
ReplyDeleteOmg you look so cute!!!!
ReplyDeleteI get what you mean about all the pink..having pink hair and having so much pink clothing definitely throws people, but I usually just take their comments in stride. You look gorgeous, especially in this lovely dress <3
ReplyDeleteThere is no such thing as TOO much pink.
