Folks, I have an obsession.
Okay, well, I have several obsessions, but the one I am confessing to here is this:
I am obsessed with all things pink.
I am a genuine sucker for all things pink. Show me a pink clothing item or accessory, and I am genuinely powerless against purchasing it.
While this obsession has been going on for some time, I only recently noticed it when I looked down at my desk in class one day and saw this:
A pink laptop, phone, iPod, and coffee mug.
While I'll admit I blushed a little when I first noticed this (my cheeks turning, of course, pink), upon further reflection, I decided this was nothing to be embarrassed about.
I love pink. I think it's fun and girly and can swing a number of ways (elegant, classic, bubbly, feminine...). Interestingly enough, I don't love wearing pink as much as I love having it as an accent...pink shoes make me giddy, but a pink blouse does not make me as happy (I cannot, however, resist the allure of a pink sundress). I'd rather have a pink accent than a pink outfit.
My point?
There's no shame in having a favorite color. Even if that favorite color is something usually reserved for toddlers.
Embrace your obsessions. Love blue? Own that. Reach for the blue iPod if that's what you love. It's silly to buy the white item if the yellow one will make you smile. Maybe don't wear that fave color H-to-T, but if you love it, live it.
