I know we juuust had two very pink recommendations on Thursday and Friday, but: Pantone has just announced that the color of the year for 2023 will be magenta. So now is a great time to pick up some of those darker pink pieces that are still on sale from this past season.

The pictured CeCe top is one we’ve featured a bunch before because it’s a great basic for both work and play; select colors including this one are down to $48.

(There are lots of lucky sizes for a few other pieces, all on sale — more CeCe tops and dresses, Sam Edelman coats, Dress the Population dresses, and a few cute Nic & Zoe toppers.) If you’re looking for lipstick, I just got this NYX one that really does not budge and is both bold and flattering (“Another Level”) — this Glossier lipstick in “Jam” is also very magenta-y on me but much more of a buildable shade.

Readers, in general do you try to buy things that are the “color of the year” to make your wardrobe feel more on trend — or is it that you just can’t avoid the color in stores since so many brands will use that color as an accent? (Last year’s Color of the Year was lavender.) I always love to pair magenta with navy and gray, with accents like orange, red, or pastel blue — what are your favorite ways to wear magenta?
