Hello Fellow Women, You are now viewing the 'new face' of Women Connections'!  Yes, it is a 'girly color'.  After all pink is for girls!  I think even though we are mature adult women, it is always healthy to get in touch with our 'girly side'~~sprucing ourselves up to a new bright color, new lipstick, new hairdo, whatever fancies you.
