Q - too much pink?

there was a thread the other day about dying ur slip...and i realllllly want to dye mine pink...but i am worried that

1 - it will not match the pink in my dress and

2 - it will be waaay too much pink.

but i loooooove pink and i love the idea...here is my dress, please give ur opinion esp. if u think it would look stupid.

Re: Q - too much pink?

maybe just go with a baby pink.....like a soft, light pink...

do NOT try to match the color on the dress - that would be too......let me go with 'prommy' if you know what i mean...

i like the idea of dying it - it's a simple touch that makes it 100% YOU!!!!

I agree with Jess - I say go for it, but go for a subtle pink. . . .

I love the way dyed crinolines look, but I would be worried that it wouldn't match the pink in your dress. What about doing pink shoes? I was going to dye my slip, but decided not too because its not very full and my shoes are really bright pink and it was alot going on.

i say go for it!
but like Jess said, I wouldn't try to match the shade of pink.
if you do a soft subtle pink I think it would be perfect.

I love the way dyed crinolines look, but I would be worried that it would match the pink in your dress-- a lighter shade would be perfect. I was going to dye my slip, but decided not too because its not very full and my shoes are really bright pink and it was alot going on.

i agree too. the pink in your dress is very pretty, but too much of it may look weird (for lack of a better word). i think a nice blush pink would look really nice, it would stand out w/out taking away from the pink in the dress.

Re: Q - too much pink?

a lighter pink would look nice...if u want a lighter pink just leave it in the dye for a shorter amount of time then the instructions say.

Re: Q - too much pink?

i love love the color pink so much and I would agree with jess if you are going to dye the slip do a lighter pink that way you dont over do it - if you do decide to do that I can not wait to see pics of how it looks

Re: Q - too much pink?

i would go for it.. but like the girls have already said.. like a very pastel pink i think it will look really pretty!

Re: Q - too much pink?

I've never seen this - what a GREAT IDEA!!! in my minds eye i agree - don't match the dress - maybe a very very light baby pink?

Re: Q - too much pink?

or pink shoes

Re: Q - too much pink?

definitely have to go with an extremely soft pink

Re: Q - too much pink?

agree w/ all above.. a very subtle pink would suit!

Re: Q - too much pink?

Yea, I definitely think you shoudl go for a very light pink! It'll look gorgeous!

Re: Q - too much pink?

hmmm - in my eyes, you can never have too much pink! lol
and the only time you are going to even see your slip is if you are holding your dress up -
if its going to peek out at the bottom, i would say be careful only because the bottom of your dress is pink

Re: Q - too much pink?

Honestly, I would love it if you dyed your crinoline pink, it would look so hot, I think it would actually enhance the dress and make it more 'you,' I definitely say go for it!
