24 Ways to Wear Purple

From Violet Gentleman Suits to Galactic Ruffles

— December 29, 2009 — Fashion
Besides being my favorite color, it’s important to know how to wear purple. A very powerful and bold choice, I cannot help but associate the color with strong, independent people. I mean, it is considered the royal color.

Especially perfect for the festive holiday season, purple is probably what’s lacking in your party outfit. Add a splash of the jewel-tone hue and you will be an instant fashion hit.
