How to Pick the Perfect Pink
See How These Rosy Tints Can Go Playful, Sexy and Sophisticated
If you think pink is just for little girls, then I'd like to change your mind. Pink is one of the most versatile colors in the spectrum: In its lighter tints it is delicate and serene, while the mid-tones are playful yet very romantic. Take pink a little deeper and it transforms into fuchsia, a color that is sexy and exotic.
Pink not only conveys a range of emotions but it also works well with any design style. It's a fun, flirty color that can also add an element of surprise to any space in your home.

Bubblegum pink. This shade of pink is indeed a playful color. Pink combined with orange is a festive, cheerful color scheme that works for children and adults. This palette also echos the colors of the Indian and Moroccan design styles, very popular right now.

A pop of pink upholstery will always make your seating stand out. I'm loving the color combo of fuchsia and turquoise.
Passion pink. This is one of the most glamorous bathrooms I have ever seen, and it's certainly a favorite here at Houzz. I love how the passion pink is introduced through the different textures of the tile, wallpaper and paint. This is how you bring sexy back to the bathroom.
