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 agree with you about the colors of the year, but these sneakers are awesome!
I wasn’t too thrilled with the colors either but I’ve seen a few items in “serenity” aka baby blue that I’m definitely into.

So funny, I didn’t like those colors either, especially not “serenity” but I’m considering going the rose quartz route (a more muted execution) in shoes or a handbag! Those are cute sneakers on you xx

I love the sneaker trend but can’t seem to find a pair of jeans that hits just the right spot to make it look right!
I’m not a big fan of pink either but these shoes look great! I also love that leather jacket, it looks so cosy with it’s fur lining 🙂 xx
Effortless and yet so cute, Ashley! Love!

I’m not big into pastels either, but I found that there were so many fun ways to wear the Pantone colors, as you’ve proven here with your sneakers!

Those rose quartz are stunning. I need them.
Those sneakers are amazing! Definitely agree the color combo looked like a baby shower announcement. But I think they can be accessorized (case in point). Especially rose quartz.
Ooh I love the rose quartz sneakers, especially paired with black! I’m with you–spring can get here any time!
These sneakers are so cute! I need to visit H&M!
I agree that the colors this year aren’t my favorite either. I don’t think pastels always look good on a lot of people, but oh well. Plenty of other colors to wear – ha.
Thanks for sharing. Hope to see you at the Fashionably Employed weekly link up next Monday!
