Hasta La Ideas

Ah, pink! It’s a color associated with Mattel’s Barbies, Mary Kay’s cadillacs and little girls everywhere. But did you know that between the 1920s and 1940s, it was blue that was considered dainty and delicate and appropriate for girls and that pink was considered to be the more masculine color appropriate for boys! Sometime in the 1940s, societal norms shifted and now pink is back and bigger than ever! Neiman Marcus called pink one of this season’s Top Trends so we can expect to see big and little girls alike strutting their stuff in cerise, fuchsia, magenta, and flamingo shades. And these powerful pink colors have a way of saying “Yes, I’m feminine but I also mean business!” So click the slideshow for some fab vintage finds that will tickle you pink!
