You’ve likely heard the term “millennial pink” by now—and you’ve definitely seen it on your Instagram feed. But it’s not jut social media the iconic color is pervading. Millennial pink is now making its way into our wardrobes, and homes, too—and we’d be lying if we said we were mad about it.
Here, nine little ways to work millennial pink into your space without turning your apartment into Barbie’s dream house.
