I went shopping on Saturday night before I went to see the movie I have been waiting a few weeks to see. The movie turned out bad, but the shopping turned out great. I love the fall season. Even though we live in Florida, fall fashion does have a place. Of course shades of brown and maroon were everywhere. But to my surprise so was purple; dark purple, eggplant, bright purple and any other shade of purple you can name. Purple shirts paired with black pants. Purple skirts paired with mustard shirts and the ideas go on and on. After store hopping, I realized this purplepalooza was not only limited to one clothing store, it was everywhere.
So I can happily say purple is everywhere this fall season. And as I always say - fashion sets the stage for paper... and so eggplant is our hot color of the season for invitations too!
So, how can you incorporate Purple this season into your life:
1. Keep fresh cut purple flowers in your home.
2. Paint one of your rooms purple, and add an accent piece of furniture to bring out the color in the wall, for ex. an accent chair with purple fabric, table painted purple or two purple lamp shades.
3. Buy a few pieces of purple clothing for your wardrobe: a scarf, pants, purse, shoes and a sweater.
4. For your fall event order purple invitations to reflect the trend this season.
5. Eat those veggies: create unique eggplant dishes this season, such as: roasted eggplant pate, szechuan spicy eggplant and eggplant stuffed with lamb and feta.
Enjoy the fall season!
