Pink or Red Cocktail Dresses

This summer, it's all about bold and bright colors. You want to make a statement in that cocktail dress, so don't settle for a hue that makes you blend in.

Pure pink and red are in, as are anything that glitters and sparkles. Think of Marilyn Monroe in that pink dress, covered in diamonds, singing 'Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend'. This is the look you want. It's retro Hollywood, pink, and oh so chic!

If you aren't a real pink person, go with pink's darker sibling, red. Being the 'Lady in Red' will get all eyes to turn as you walk in the room. And while you may not be wearing that pink Marilyn dress, you can still accent your red cocktail dress with large sparkling baubles.

When choosing pink or red cocktail dresses, remember that these are colors that are going to make you stand out, so you need to make sure they are flattering to your figure. Try these dresses on before you buy them and really take the time to look carefully at the fit. You want to make sure the dress is accentuating all your good features and is not drawing attention to any you would prefer to go unnoticed.
