“Clink!” to Pink

“Think pink! Think pink when you shop for summer clothes… Think pink! Think pink if you want that quel-que chose… Red is dead, blue is through, green’s obscene, brown’s taboo — and there is not the slightest excuse for plum or puce – or chartreuse. Think pink!” ~Funny Face

I just finished watching Funny Face for the umpteenth time and cannot get Think Pink out of my head!  “A picture with class” and “extraordinarily stylish” said the New York Times rave review in 1957. No kidding.  A movie that includes the oh-so-chic backdrop of Paris…

Fred Astaire playing a character based on photography superstar Richard Avedon…

Audrey Hepburn as a budding supermodel…

Kay Thompson (creator of the rawther fabulous Eloise) playing Diana Vreeland, editrix of Harper’s Bazaar; and a musical score by the Gershwins…what’s not to love?

Not to mention the color pink. Does it ever really go out of style? Mais non.

The pink baton has been passed on…

Lilly, Tory, Kate, and the girls at Juicy all have pink in their pretty palettes and Pantone has named it color of the year. I think it’s safe to say pink is here to stay…

 Pink for bags!

Pink for shoes!

Play in pink!

 

Drive in pink!

 

Come alive in pink!

Clink to pink!

Go out dancing, but just remember one thing:

You can get a little wink

If you got a little pink

In your swing!
