Purple Reigns

Purple Reigns

September 2007

The boldness of electric plum, amethyst, and heliotrope demands a bit of attention—shrinking violets turn away. Just because it’s loud doesn’t mean a bright purple or deep lavender can’t be refined. Whether used as the paint on your nails or the paint on your walls, keep the rest of the look classic and simple. A jewel-toned silk top under a smart black suit is perfect for the office. In your home, mix bright purple with soothing shades of gray for a combination that is graceful and romantic.
