I've never been able to like fuchsia enough to own anything in the shade, aside from a hot pink trenchcoat that I absolutely adore (but I only wear it in the rain and with black so that the color gets diluted a bit). But I love the look of a eye-popping, neon pink, especially when set against an otherwise neutral ensemble. Any combination of black, white, camel, and pink? Oh yes. To me, it's the best way to incorporate the color without looking like you've been doused in Pepto Bismol. Fuchsia gets a little more grown-up when it's paired with classic neutral stripes or soft camel hues. I'm currently hankering after this Kate Spade tote to brighten me up for spring.
What do you think of hot pink?

i have a hot pink waterproof trench coat too! what are the odds of that? i also have a pair of pink kate spade randi rainboots (but i never wear the two together. that would be a little too much pink)
and speaking of coincidences, i think it's so awesome that you're from poughkeepsie. i grew up in kingston :]

I love bright pink but I don't think I can pull it well. For me a pieve of an accessory in pink would work great - like that scarf or purse, or a flower pin.
I love the fuschia blazer!
I love pops of bright pink! Always so fun ;)

I'm on the same page here, I love the hot pink combined with neutral colors. Especially with camel. Love your examples here!
Fuchsia is a gorgeous gorgeous color! Thanks for reminding me of that! :)

Pink is my favorite color, but surprisingly I don't actually wear pink. I want to get more bright coral piecces though this spring.
I love the fur vest, thick striped blouse and little punch of pink, soooo chic!
Love,

I'm seriously DYING for some fuschia right now. Really. Looking, looking...
um i love it! but i'm with you - it needs to be paired with neutrals so it's not blinding.
