Two questions - am I getting away with these? Or do I put them on Vinted?

And if not a black top, then what? I’m not brave enough for orange.

I'm not a big fan of pink generally, and the very bright pink wouldn't suit me at all. But I have a colleague who wears a shocking pink coat and admittedly looks fabulous in it.

FindingMeno · 09/12/2022 07:59

I won't be wearing it.
One of my least favourite clothing colours.

Motorina · 09/12/2022 08:05

@DuncanBiscuits I think they look fab on you. No idea on top colour though - sorry.

DuncanBiscuits · 09/12/2022 08:07

Thank you. Me neither. And I’ve no idea what shoes.

They were a bit of an impulse purchase 😳

Longlongtime · 09/12/2022 08:09

I love bright pink but haven’t noticed the trend and I go shopping a lot!

SingingSands · 09/12/2022 08:26

I've just bought a hot pink sequinned skirt.

Recently bought a hot pink coat, but had to return it - the oversized coat trend does me no favours. Coat looked like it was eating me up 😄

LearnerCook · 09/12/2022 08:41

I love most shades of pink and it seems to suit me so I'm happy if it's going to be in the shops loads.

CharlotteStreet · 09/12/2022 08:48

Me! I have three hot pink handbags and a ridiculous amount of pink shoes. (Clothes tend to be more pale pink/blush.)

Trinny can get in the bin.

They look a bit big and long. Can you get a smaller size? Also tuck your top in - so you have a waist. Your emphasising your widest part there

LadyEloise1 · 09/12/2022 09:15

@DuncanBiscuits
I don't think that outfit flatters you.
Vinted it.

DuncanBiscuits · 09/12/2022 10:07

Thank you. I’ve just had another try-on.

GalwayShawl · 09/12/2022 10:10

My mum died a week ago and it was by far her favourite colour.from shows tomonine loopy and charger. All Fuschia.

i cannot tell you how much this thread has cheered me up today wear your pink with pride!

darisdet · 09/12/2022 16:21

I spotted a load (well two) full length pink coats when out today. Thought of this thread!

I like it. It's a cheerful colour.

Lcb123 · 09/12/2022 16:39

Me! I love bright pink. Wouldn’t wear light pink. It cheers up everyday black dress or jeans

LifeInAHamsterWheel · 09/12/2022 16:51

@GalwayShawl Flowers on the loss of your mum

I love pink! I love it with white, grey, navy and particularly orange. It also looks great with other shades of pink.

CrinchyGrinchy · 09/12/2022 17:05

@DuncanBiscuits sorry but I don't think those trousers are for you. I agree with what @Beyondshit has said. They emphasise you at your widest part. They look too big. I think it's the pleats and the length. You may be able to get away with them if you wore a higher heel with them so they just touched the ground. But tbh I would put them on Vinted or try and return to the shop

DuncanBiscuits · 09/12/2022 17:30

Yeah, there’s a reason why they’ve been in the wardrobe since June 😂

Tigofigo · 09/12/2022 17:41

I'd much rather people were wearing hot pink than boring old black.

I used to have a magenta merino jumper which I loved, might have to get a hot pink jumper. Off to Vinted I go...

FettleOfKish · 09/12/2022 17:46

I love love a bright pink or raspberry pink, whether it's currently in fashion or not.

Got a beautiful bright pink coat from Primark earlier in the year. I love it! Looks great with a tangerine crossbody

That sounds gorgeous. I don't love bright pink on its own but I really love it with tangerine. Those colours together just lift the mood.

done4now · 09/12/2022 18:00

I just bought this (but not the hat)

Yes! Makes me feel really happy and energised .

Yes! They look amazing. I like it with the black as well.

That is a stunner! Any events in mind to wear it to?
