How to make Barbiecore timeless

July 20, 2023

The world has gone gaga for Barbie, and everybody's thinking pink! If you're not quite ready to commit to a totally hot pink home, don't worry. Blush is here to take Barbiecore from so-hot-right-now to timeless classic.

While hot pink is in the spotlight, we know not everybody is willing to go for the full Barbie Dreamhouse effect. If your style is more Scandi than Malibu, a softer approach requires a softer shade of pink. Meet Blush, our dreamy, creamy pink that brings a subtle flush of colour into any space.

Blush as a neutral

Yes, pink is totally a neutral! Or at least it can be. Pairing Blush with natural fibres and finishes such as timber, ceramic and jute creates a textured, grown-up palette that lets the pink sing (softly!) Serve it up with generous portions of white, cream, or sand for an airy, light-soaked look that's ideal for amplifying natural light and brightening shadowy corners. Our Blush has a subtle grey undertone, so it plays beautifully with neutrals.

pastel pink paradise

Ok, we're nudging closer to Barbiecore territory. Buckle up! If you prefer your pink cosy instead of hot, pastel pink will make all your dreams come true. Create a retro Palm Springs-inspired vibe with mid-century modern furnishings and pink-on-pink layering. For a monochrome look that's impactful without being loud, try painting your wall to match your Blush locker or pair blush accessories with statement furniture pieces in the same shade. When it comes to this look, more (pink) is more!

pop of pink

Like the sound of bubblegum popping, there's something very satisfying about a pop of pink. Let our cheerful Berry shade bring a burst of colour into your space. Bright and bubbly, Berry is bold without leaning into candy-land sweetness. If you're worried about going OTT, a pop of pink is the perfect way to introduce the colour of the moment into your world.
