{violet obsession}

Purple has become my new favorite color the past few months. Lilac, amethyst, wine, magenta, violet, mauve, all shades and hues of purple I am completely obsessed with! Not to mention, you see it everywhere lately. It was a popular color for Fall clothing, and just as home design follows fashion, all hues of purple have showed up in rugs, walls, and upholstery. I love it paired with chocolate brown, gold, or a light grey. Many designers have used it as the spot of color in a room full of neutrals. It is associated with royalty, regality, and nobility, believed to be Cleopatra’s favorite color!
