Pretty In Pink

An homage to the eponymous hue 
of my favourite eighties Brat Pack movie
by the late John Hughes:
     
  
 
  

      
  


 

 
  
 
  
   
       
This particular colour played a significant role during my formative years, maybe owing to my having assimilated some manner of gender-stereotyped marketing, or the fact that the first full sentence of la langue française I managed to commit to memory was: 'Je porte une robe rose'.  
    
In any case, time it was when it was the only shade I would willingly wear, and when my entire bedroom was a hideous, chintzy pink shrine.
    
Consequently, I now approach the colour with perhaps undue caution.
