PINK
I'm not sure why I hate the color pink. I do like HOT pink on the RIGHT people.

HOT pink signage might work for the right occasion. But pink sweat suits, ski suits, blazers, awnings, dress shirts, ( a pink tie might fly on the right person. ) Pink 57 Caddy's are very HOT.

NAVY BLUE & MAROON

Yes, some colleges can pull these colors off = they need to perennially win championships to pull these colors off, however. A navy pee coat is cool. But these colors broadcast old, cigar smoke, narrow minded, uniforms. A navy sport coat on the right people. But never a maroon coat = ushers, flight attendants. I don't think I would fly with an airline that had maroon in their graphic standards manual.

BEIGE

Not to be confused with off-white or creme. We know what I’m talking about. Envision a beige fridge. Beige blazer. A beige car with a beige interior! The color even sounds bad. I can’t think of one designer who I respect who gets off on beige. Seriously.

Quick drying swim suits.

There's a new bikini in town that doesn't hold water. The nano-tech fabric is not new but it's application is. Called Sun Dry, each fiber of the new fabric is surrounded by an invisible barrier that allows water to pass through it rather than being absorbed into it.
