Blazer w/pinkish stripe?

I was in Zara yesterday and they had a blazer on sale that was a sort of gray flannel look with a lighter gray stripe and a sort of pinkish/rose colored stripe. It fit great, and I have things I could match it to, but would anyone wear those colors? I was having trouble deciding if I'd actually wear it, or if it was one of those things I was looking at solely because it was $39.90. Unfortunately I didn't snap a picture.

Wasn't so much a question of matching, but whether the jacket itself would stand out too much in a not good way (my jackets have always had more muted stripes).

I rock my old CDG H+ black blazer with pink stripes and neon pink lining. Pink is teh sex.

Now I need metallic pink pants to go with it.

Uh, not sure where that's coming from. Not a question of balls, but some things stand out in a bad way, and I couldn't decide whether this would end up being one of them.

we can't even see it


Well, I'm sure once I go back for it it'll be gone, lol. And don't get me wrong, I'm a huge fan of pink, I wear pink shirts all the time, and pink ties frequently. I also have pairs of pink cuff links, and even some socks with pink stripes. Just couldn't decide if a jacket would work well or not.
