It is seen through statement pieces such as sunglasses, trucker hats, cargo pants, shirts, skirts, and shoes of all varieties. We have seen the color pink cycle back each year -not only in clothing- but in films, packaging, interior design, and accessories worn by celebrities. Celebrities that excel and wear the iconic color consists of Rachel McAdams (Mean Girls), Reese Witherspoon (Legally Blonde), Harry Styles (Singer-Songwriter), and Jackie Kennedy (Former 1st Lady of the White House).
