Admittedly I wasn’t initially a huge fan of the 2016 Pantone colors of the year: rose quartz and serenity. Baby pink and baby blue? Look, I love a good pale pink manicure and I do own a pair of sky blue shoes, but I’m also not your typical pastel-loving girl. Also, these colors kinda look a baby gender reveal party– I mean, right?
All that being said, I found these blush sneakers at H&M and ate all my words. One of the colors of year and on-trend with the sneaker resurgence? I’m game. (Athleisure is alive and well, guys.) Grabbed a slouchy neutral sweater and skinny jeans (winter uniform, Round 50) and tossed a fleece jacket over the top, as KC has decided to freeze over again. That groundhog didn’t see his shadow, right? Spring is on the way and cannot get here soon enough for my taste.
Shop the look:
In general, pink isn’t usually my jam. But in cool sneaker form + a muted-almost-nude version, I am a convert.

I totally feel you on the pink and blue! I think the colors are beautiful, they’re just not for me. These shoes are great because they’re more neutral while still having that pale pink element!

I may be a little biased because I own the shoes but this look is great 🙂

I’m loving the rose quartz color and can’t seem to get enough of it. Those shoes are fantastic! What an easy way to ease into the color if you aren’t a pink fan. Great find!

Hahahaha yes! Gender reveal party at it’s finest! Girl, you are totally right. I am partial to rose quartz. I feel like my pale skin tone makes it hard to pull off serenity even though I love pastels. These sneakers are super cute and even pull more of a mauve/ brown tone on camera. Super neutral!
You look wonderful!!!
Have nice day!

It’s always interesting to see how you feel about a certain color often hinges on where you see it. The pastel pink seemed unappealing, until the sneakers came along. Now that you are open to it, who knows what you might buy in baby pink next.
