Valspar

Bossy Pants Pink

V040-4

Bossy Pants Pink is a muted raspberry-mauve with more purple than bubblegum. The mauve base keeps the raspberry from turning candy sweet. The color can carry a powder room, dresser, or closet interior, especially with aged brass and warm ivory trim.

On a large wall, it may feel richer and duskier than expected. Keep nearby patterns simple. Cool gray flooring can pull it toward violet, so sample near the floor.
