Oh my gosh, the other day, there were all kinds of pieces of pink jewelry. I use to love pink (younger years), but now I just love color. But pink for me, has left me.

when is the color season anyway, from when to when. I thought green had just come in and now, boom, it's pink. ??

I still own an Eileen Fisher hot pink sweater that is over 15 years old and still looks brand new. The yarn reminds me of a popcorn ceiling but a flat one if you can picture it. It look great with dark brown pants or navy, charcoal gray and black. I hardly wear it now because our winters are not that cold. It has a loose turtleneck. I cannot see light pink pants for fall/winter. Light pink cotton pants would look good for summer. The only store I usually go into is JJill and no pink in there.

What shoes would you wear in winter w/ pink pants?

Pink doesn't seem to be a Fall color, IMO.

Wine, burgundy, and plum are Fall colors...

@Shanus, Off the top of my head, I would say dark brown or charcoal gray and black. I am thinking of a hot pink or medium pink color. For a light pink summer pant, I would wear white or light beige.

I may do a hot pink sweater, but stay w/ my black or charcoal pants. I don't think pink pants would be very versatile.

RI have owned one pair of pink pants in my lifetime. I made the mistake of wearing them to NYC on a trip I made alone.

It seemed that every male that saw me yelled " Hey, pink pants". I was there on business, but I was not in the business they mistook me to be in.

That was many years ago, and from then on I say NO to pink pants.

added: I just remembered what happened to those pink pants. My DH taught forensic science to police officers for homicide cases. He and his team buried a deer that was killed on the highway and needed clothing to dress it in. I gave my DH those pants and the matching shirt to dress the deer for burial. A year later the deer was dug up for study. I know...TMI and gross.

At the hair stylist yesterday I picked up the latest InSyle and the cover model was all done in bright pink, long dress and boots! I think the pink boots were over the knee (they were suede).

I totally want those boots but would have no place to ever wear them!

@QueenDanceALot, maybe you and @Carmie can go to New York together.

I gave away a pair of pink earrings I had. Now I wish I'd kept them!

I'm not sure I'd mind if the construction workers yelled, "HEY, PINK BOOTS!"

I love pink. Bring it on!

I finally realized that I would never wear any of the colored pants in my closet and don't buy them anymore. I did buy a few pink tops lately and would maybe buy a pink handbag if it was just the right one😻

I do all my shopping online and with QVC. I do not go to stores and sure as heck don't do malls..except for the restaruants in malls. I know I have red that blush is big this fall but it's blush has been a player for a couple of years now. I love the look of pastel sweaters or blouses with ivory pants or skirts. I've always done that look. So, blush tops would work for me. But not any shade of pink on the bottom...oh no...never.

I haven't noticed pink in any store windows ... I haven't been into any stores recently.

I'm not wearing pink!

I bought a pink patent clutch 2 years ago.

I'm such a trendsetter!

I have a pair of pink d'orsay heels that I wore to work one day a few years back (there was something special going on that day) and a woman I worked with said,

"Who do you think you are, Imelda Marcos?"

(I think she had pink shoe envy )

I had a "fuzzy" pink cowl neck sweater that I wore with black leather pants. Loved that outfit. It wore out and I never found another one quite like it.
