Taylor Focus dress in blush, $697.

Taylor Focus dress in blush, $697.

Put aside your preconceptions of pink and check out this hot hue for spring. Pink is everywhere at the moment - from flamingos on men's shirts to pink hair colour.

It need not be pretty and girly. Though there are pretty, flouncy dresses, items like this hot pink Ruby diamonds jumper are a lot edgier. With so many different shades of pink there is one to suit everyone. People with cooler skin colours often find pinks that have blue undertones are the most flattering. Those with warmer skin tones can veer into corals.

For work, a pink silk shirt looks great under a blazer. Or pack a cute pink mini like this one from Ruby for your next weekend away.

Embrace pink in your makeup as well. Spring is a great time to experiment with a dash of pink blush, and a pink lip is less in-your-face than red but can be just as eye-catching.

Experiment with a few vivid pinks can be great for a night out, while a slick of pink gloss will give understated polish
