Pink: Not just the color of your nose this winter...

Six months ago, InStyle told us that the LBD (little black dress) was now the LBD (little bright dress), and while, as a girl that loves color and works in a boutique I didn't need them to tell me that, I was pleased that they'd made this knowledge well known.

Trends move fast though and I'd like to make an amendment: The go to eye-popping, stop 'em dead in their tracks, holiday pretty, super sexy go to color is... (drumroll please) ... MAGENTA. Now, magenta's been working it's way up since the Nick Jr. people got together during my early years and named Blue's best friend after that bold pink color, but this is really it's year. Cerulean had it's turn, and gold and silver always get theirs, but this year: I'm choosing to campaign for a color that even the folks at Crayola get nervous over.

Ever since our grandmothers started burning their bras, pink's been a little bit of a outcast. Pink is for babies, pink for is prepsters, pink is for babies who will grow up to be prepsters... that's all I hear from some women. Has no one noticed that pink is HOT this year? Central Park West, Tracy Reese, Parker and Rory Beca have all done their part to show you that pink, can be one of the edgiest colors around. Pink is now for grown up girls too, and I for one refuse to let this revolution pass me by. Who's with me?

Take a deep, cleansing, courageous breath... and trust me when I am so forward as to say that pink, my friends, is the new black... And who knows more about the importance of the LBD than you?

Join me in this victory with pink, you'll look great... I pink-y swear.
