Pose skating in the rink in a pastel shade (4,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rose pink

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'rink in a pastel shade' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't see how they can define each other.

'pose skating in the' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
an anagram of 'pose' is 'osep' which is present in the answer.
'in' is within the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for rose pink that I've seen is " Shade of a flower (two flowers!)".)
