Pink and punk go hand-in-hand, as proven by epic fashionistas like Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow who both choose to rock their own versions of the punkish in pink look at the Met earlier this month.

So do yourself and your wardrobe a favor and be on the lookout for a few punkishly pink additions to your summer closet.

Another super chic way to rock the punkish in pink trend would be to go for a cheerful pop of pink on your lips, believe it or not pink lips can be edgy when paired with a sultry smoky eye and perfectly tousled rock star waves in your hair. Ladies, it’s time to re-think the way we look at pink, by pairing it with edgier pieces we can breathe new life into this classic girly hue.
