5 Ways To Wear Pink When You Love Black

Pink is a major fall trend this year as opposed to your typical darker colors. From barely there pinks to bright bold hues, we're seeing them all over the runways. Most of us love breaking out the head-to-toe black, but with pink topping the charts for trends, we can afford to switch it up a little bit. It's not horrible to change up your outfits and add a pop of pink sometimes! You just have to do so the right way so you can still look chic, feel good, and keep your personal style in check.

Need some inspiration? Here are five different ways you can rock this seemingly girly color and make it more edgy. This listicle may just convert you to loving pink that much more!

1. Layer it with a leather jacket.

Adding a leather jacket to any outfit makes it instantly more edgy. Pairing a black leather jacket over a soft pink hue surely toughens it up and contrasts the two styles nicely. Add metallic accessories for chic embellishment. Take your look from day to night by wearing a pencil skirt for work and changing into a pair of dark wash jeans for the evening.

2. Try dusty pink hues.

Dusty pink is very popular wherever you go. Plus, it's so much easier to wear in an outfit when bright pink isn't your cup of tea. Dusty pink jeans are similar enough to a neutral that you can pair them with many outfits. This grey slouchy shirt and over-sized clutch allow the pink to pop more while the nude shoes offset the jeans. Try dusty pink blouses and jackets as well to pair with outfits like a neutral jacket.

3. Pair it with an all black outfit.

There's nothing edgier than a great head to black outfit, but this time try switching it up! This light pink and flowing blouse really stands out compared to the rest of the black in the ensemble. Typically a blouse like this would be very feminine and frilly, but if you want to change it up this is the way to do it!

4. Incorporate it into your makeup.

A nude pink lip is super popular versus the typical nude lips you've been seeing. This is a great natural makeup look, super easy to do and can be paired with all your looks. This is also an easy way to incorporate some pink into your everyday look without trying too hard.

5. Rock it with your shoes.

Can we talk about how gorgeous and comfortable lace up flats are to wear? Make the most out of your shoes and go for a light or dusty pink pair of lace up flats. This way, you can rock them with your work and weekend wear. Plus, they can go from day to night (one less thing you need to change when you're in a rush).

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
