Purple Reigns

Although I enjoy warm weather, I’m anxiously anticipating the onset of the cooler months. To me, nothing epitomizes chic fashions like the fall. This season’s styles are going to be a purple paradise. Variations of plum hues will be seen everywhere from purple polishes to festive frocks.

    let me just say that fall is my FAVORIATE season...especially for fashion reasons....but yes, purple is so pretty...i can't wait!! and unlike a lot of summer colors, shades of purple usually look good makeup-wise. i loved wearing yellow this summer but how crazy would i look with bright yellow eyeshadow? LOLOL!!

    I'm going to have to watch this one from the sidelines. I try my hardest not to wear purple. I have one deep plum dress (it looks black in the dark).I wore it once... when I was out of town. LOL!

    I love the purple sandals! I'm not one for lots of colors but deep purple is one I can definitely do. I especially like that cowl neck! I'm looking forward to some fall shopping even though we don't really have a fall season here in H-town!

    It's good to know that purple is not just for Easter.
    I love your choices not only of the color but the styles. The chiffon ruffle halter is a must.

    As individuals, we must BE FLY at all costs right! Well with this being said, my fail proof outfit encompasses these key items: big wavy hair about 16-18"(hair is an accessory everyone), tasteful/sexy top (no need to show all the cleavage), curvaceous jeans (preferably dark wash) and hot wedge shoes (I need a base). I'll think I'll mix green and purple this fall. Seeming as if green is my favorite color this year (growth,life,money) and purple is definitely hot this fall (royalty).

    Purple is my favorite color! Different shades at different times, right now my fav is magenta like the third dress.

    I love the style of the second dress, GORGEOUS!
