Pink..something nice to say about pink..
As a red headed woman, I have never been one to choose pink for anything. It just doesn't seem to work for me. However, giving birth to a baby girl I was thrown into the world of pink! She was also born with red hair so may one day have the same issues I do with the colour. Until then she doesn't have a whole lot of say in her wardrobe, mostly because everything baby girl is pink!
Why in this day and age are we still so segregated into thinking blue is for boys, pink is for girls. It's just not the case. Even when I was still pregnant and not knowing the sex of the baby it was terribly difficult to find clothes that were considered "gender neutral". Now that she is here its pink, pink, pink!! Purple, Yellow, Blue, Green...all of them will one day be available to her so why not now? Do we have to make a statement to the world saying "Look..i have a baby girl!" or "Look..i have a baby boy!". Perhaps this is the inner tom boy in me trying to get out but if any baby clothes manufacturer reads this, please, expand your pallet of colour for baby girl clothing..
