If you were an 80s or a 90s kid, there is a good chance that your childhood involved a lot of baby pink (hello, Barbie, Disney princesses, and My Little Pony). Not surprisingly, millennials have a nostalgic love for the sugary shade – but today, it’s a little more rosé than bubblegum. Here are some ways to embrace the “non-pink” pink.

Whether you’re attending Fashion Week or just walking to work, a luxe pink topper will take you through every season. Pair this shade with dove grey for the ultimate year-round cool-girl uniform.

Nail this color trend by finding the perfect juxtaposition of edgy and feminine. Try rocking the shade in a trendy ruffled silhouette, and toughen up your look with some killer ankle boots. Finish with tousled hair and a boho bag.

Combine this rosy hue with summer’s hottest pattern for super-chic picnic vibes. Swap heels for slides, and you can go from runway to real life, without sacrificing any style.

If you’re not ready to rock head-to-toe millennial pink, ease in with a fun blush bag or suede sandals. Wear a contrasting monochromatic look so it really pops. (Extra points for mixing textures!)
