Think Pink!
Hi all! Well, last week's "surprise" is here...sort of. ;) The big purchase I mentioned last week was A NEW CAMERA LENS. As it turns out, I found out some interesting news the day after posting. A friend from our home school group recently made the switch from Nikon to Olympus and had several old lenses. He's letting me try them out, then buy what I like. :) Today's outfit photos are courtesy the 70-200 mm lens. It does great blurry backgrounds, which is just the ticket for fashion bloggers!
Today's outfit features a pink graphic tee that I found when Mom and I went shopping at the mall a couple of weeks ago. It was high time that I got more pink in my wardrobe! Pairing the top with my black and gray chevron skirt seemed like the natural thing to do. Because of the tee's shape, it needed a black braided belt to cinch in the waist. Leggings and ballet flats complete the outfit. This outfit has me thinking that black and pink are a great combination. :)

What are your feelings on the color pink?
Have you made any exciting new photography discoveries lately?

Well, you know someone in my household that approves of the color pink! Lol.

Lol! Yes. indeed. :)
DeleteVery fun outfit! I do like the flower picture as well--nice background! I like pink in theory, though I seldom wear it (it doesn't seem the most flattering color on me; people I know with darker hair seem to wear it better).
ReplyDeleteThank you Bethany! :)
DeleteHeh-heh. Wearing pink isn't for everyone. I'm glad you enjoy pink flowers though. ;)
Oh my friend! How exciting for you! I love my 55-200 lens and it is just perfect for blurring out backgrounds!
ReplyDeleteAnd I love your outfit too as pink is my favourite colour:)
Hugs to you!
Ooh, that's great! :)
DeleteThank you! :)
Hugs to you too! I hope you're enjoying you are enjoying this month.
Lens! That's funny I didn't guess it was that! :) I'm jealous now! ;) haha! Just kidding! I love blurry backrounds!!!!! :) I use my mom's big camera, but you can't attach other lens onto it, so its not a really fancy camera like the one you have. It can take good pictures though! Love your outfit. And one of my favourite colours is pink. Lots of our house is pink colour ....... light pink, mind you, because my mom likes the colour too!! My other favourite colours are baby blue and light brown.
ReplyDeleteHeehee! Well, I'm glad you have a good camera to use. :)
DeleteThank you! Your house must be very elegant with the light pink. :)
It sounded like I was saying that the whole house is pink, but its not. Mainly the living room and dining room. But they aren't covered with pink ... just here and there! :)
DeleteOh, ok! That sounds nice. :)
DeleteWell, I was close with my guess! The last two pictures are very well taken. The focus is where it should be and everything else is blurry.
ReplyDeletePink...I have to say I don't care much for it. I love coral but pink is still not on my favorites list.
Thank you! Mom did a good job. :)
DeleteHeh-heh. It's not for everyone. :) Coral is pretty too though (obviously it's a theme on my blog...haha!)
Very cute belted shirt combo! So great!
ReplyDeleteThank you! :D
DeleteI could never pull off a print shirt with a skirt but you make it look awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteAw, thanks Lois. :)
DeleteThis outfit is so nice! I love pink with black and gray and the light pink is definitely perfect for spring and summer!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jill! Yes, it is a good color for this and the upcoming season. :)
DeleteYay for pink! ^_^ nice outfit! :) I like the new tee.
ReplyDeleteIndeed! Thank you. :D
DeleteLove your shirt, and stripes? Always perfect.

Thank you Sarah! :D
DeleteOoh, I like your room decor. ;)
Thanks so much for your sweet comment Sarah! It's good to "see" you.
Pink and black are one of my favorite "girly" color combinations, but I can't pull it off! :( When I wear pinks or reds now, my auburn hair has to fight hard to offset the red in my clothes. Brunettes though, like you, look amazing in those two colors though! Have fun with them.
ReplyDeleteExcited for you and your new camera lens too!

Thanks for your sweet comment and your excitement! :D
DeleteIt's too bad you can't pull off the pink, but hey....you have auburn hair, so it's worth it, right? ;)
