Sick of pink

LO's hair has always been auburn, and it's getting redder as more of it comes in (DH had bozo the clown red hair as a kid). She looks AWFUL in pink, and frankly, I wasn't that fond of it in the first place.

EVERYONE buys a girl pink-- esp these early clothes. My MIL is the worse about it, and you would think she would remember, esp as she told me she only dressed DH in green b/c of his hair. 

I've had it with pink! Anyone else over it or am I the first?

Re: Sick of pink

  • I still adore pink.

    Purple is not the best color on my LO for some reason. I thought I was crazy for thinking that but then my Mom said the same thing! It's just not her color.

  • I don't hate pink, I just wish A didn't have so much of it. I'm a blue girl and love girly blue clothes. We have seriously only bought her like 3 outfits. The rest were gifts. 1 of the things we bought was a Texas rangers onesie and we didn't get it pink either. Just add a bow and she still looks like a girl. Lol. The other two things were a purple outfit and Christmas PJs. Everything else was a gift or hand me down. We didn't even do her room in pink. We went purple and green. :)

  • I'm not a fan of pink. If I had a girl, I wouldn't get pink clothes for her. I'd go for pretty much any other color but I've never liked pink, not even as a young girl lol.

  • We have lots of pink, too. I'm always excited when someone gets her things in a different color. And like someone else said, 99% of her clothes are gifts or hand me downs from friends, so I don't buy her much myself. We got some red booties recently, and I was looking for something she could wear them with... I think she has zero red clothes! My favorite to dress her in is yellow or blue :)

  • I love dressing her in blue and green and white-- she also doesn't look great in purple, which breaks my heart since everything I own is purple!

    I'm hoping once they get bigger girls clothes will trend towards less pink?

  • I love my little girl in purple and yellow. She looks nice in pink but I get tired of it. I have a beautiful redheaded niece. She looks great in purple. We don't get her pink but she is a girly girl who loves pink. So I get it and agree not all little girls have to wear pi k all the time.

  • Blasphemy! Lol I love pink. I suppose you're allowed though because pink isn't good on redheads. My mom has beautiful red hair that I was always jealous of. LO is in pink a lot but she actually does look great in dark blue. Her eyes are gray and dark blue brings them out. But brown isn't her best color.

  • Pink is my favorite color.  The pinker the better!  DH knows I love anything he brings me home if it is pink.  Chocolate, flowers, a t shirt, teddy bear, carseat cover.  I am nuts about pink...but atlas I have a son so the pink will have to wait.

  • I personally hate the color pink...never been a fan of it.  Stella has very few pink items.  I think I pissed off DH's niece the other day - I posted yet another picture of S on FB the other day - in a Tigers onesie and his niece's common was something along the lines of 'can I please see my cousin in some pink!'  And then I get a note from the daycare yesterday that Friday is wear pink day (for Race for the Cure).  That's going to be a challenge!

  • Haha I love pink, but I do sometimes think we are on pink overload! I have a lot more color choices inmy 3-6 month section of her closet, so once we can get into those clothes I'll have more choices.

    I was drooling over a lot of the gorgeous red & black stuff at carters yesterday!

  • i hate pink too.  but i hate the idea of spending money on baby clothes even more.  so i'll dress the girls in pink clothes if people buy them for us, but i never buy anything pink myself.

  • I've always hated the color pink but for some reason now that I have a girl I love pink for her.  She really looks good in it.  Never thought I would like it but now I do.  She really looks good in blue too so I've been buying her some cooler weather clothes in blue.  She also has very little red and black and I've bought her a few things in these as well.  Not sure if she looks good in them yet because she hasn't worn any.
