Re: Do you wear a lot of purple?

I like to wear rich blue-purple and pink-purple in the winter. Pinks up my fair complexion. Light purples wash me out. I prefer to wear purple tops w/ dark blue-gray bottoms and sometimes Dark blue-gray jackets or cardigans. Yellow grays turn me yellow!

Jewel tones are staples of my wordrobe. I do have a R Lauren turtleneck in royal purple and one black and purple scarf, more fall weight, definately too sheer for winter. I don't see a lot of deep purple and don't pick up the medium tone.

Re: Do you wear a lot of purple?

Yes, it's my favorite color and I wear it all the time. Only this year have I fallen in love with black and might actually have more black than purple in my closet - but maybe not!

Zilch. It would be the last color I would ever wear.

Yes- it's a close second to PINK!

Re: Do you wear a lot of purple?

Yes, wearing more & more of it (have no pants/skirts in purple, but lots of t's, sweaters, and tunics). Some are dark jeweled tone & some are pastels (an LL Bean v-neck pima cotton t that I love), and I have an older Modern Soul (remember that brand?) shawl collar cardigan that is soft & so cozy in cold weather. I have salt & pepper hair that I wear short & have medium skin tones, so any purple looks good on me.

Re: Do you wear a lot of purple?

I look best in jewel tones and always have. They work with my coloring. Now that my hair is mostly white they look even better on me. I love purple and have a lot of it in my wardrobe, but try not to do mostly purple, but mix it up a good part of the time.

Purple looks great with grays or blacks. It looks great in the summer with white.

Re: Do you wear a lot of purple?

No, hardly any. It isn't among my favorites, though I do have a few pieces I think I acquired just to round out my wardrobe. I do have one 'blackberry' cashmere sweater that's actually a pretty shade of dark purple I wear a good bit.
