-The pink is a very pretty color - there's no embossing other than it is vegan but looks like leather.  The pink is a soft rose pink- it's not a hot pink, just a true pretty pink.  Its very feminine. (Reminds me of China Glaze's "Shocking Pink" as a reference. The shade is a bit too muted and cool to be considered by most a hot pink.  Inside it is grey and around the edges the zipper is black.  The colors coordinate well.-The black is just a solid matte black, and it's fairly masculine and basic, though some women may like it too. The zipper is black as well.One reviewer commented on the smell - I have 2 and they both do have a little bit of a plastic-y chemical 'new' smell.  to me it isn't that strong and it doesn't bother me, but I'm not overly sensitive to smells and can love even heavy fragrance.Inside it has a place for several credit cards and a stylus or pen.  I will not be putting cards in mine until I get a screen protector on it. (They could scratch the screen when it's folded over, I'd think.It has an inside case that snaps out if you want to take it out of the case.  It lines up well, and you can get to all the buttons with the case and cover all on.It has a strap to carry it with.  The strap seems fairly secure- it connects with a little clip but the clip is sturdy.  There's not a lot of padding.Personally I am always pulling my Kindle out to read, and I prefer a case that just flips open and fits in my purse a bit better.  This one is nice though - It'll be great to take to appointments - like doctor's appointments, and anyplace I know I'm going to have to wait a while and I can just ditch the purse and put what I need in this case.  For every day use though, I'll stick with my flip open covers.
