Pardon our Blush

Peeking over the tops of our rose-colored glasses, to our delight, we noticed that blushing beauties covered fashion runways for Spring, Summer and Fall, this year.
Fashionisers.com states: ". . . it’s just clear-cut that the designers fired on all cylinders to kick-start a wide scale pink revolution in the fashion circuit. Ranging from amaranth and brink pink to raspberry and ultra-pink, the runway had them all in droves." And W Magazine concurs: "Wear Pink, specifically – despite what Pantone says, pink is the color for 2017."
A very vintage color for women, but this year, a popular choice for men, too, please parade out all fashion items in this color with pinkies held high. Blushing, perhaps, but not at all embarrassed; we pun pink in this parade.
