Loud, unapologetic pink with a cool blue undertone that keeps it from tipping saccharine. The hex code #f51d7e is fully saturated and gets exhausting as a full background, so lean on it as an accent, highlight, or call to action at the ten percent mark. Deep navy flatters it better than cream does. Black text on top clears WCAG AA for body copy at about 5.4:1 contrast.
