Purple is becoming an “it” color….specifically shades of violet and plum. Purple adds excitement and drama to any outfit, but most people find purple intimidating to wear. I admit…I actually do not have a lot of purple in my closet, despite the fact that I am constantly told to wear purple because I have green eyes and it provides a nice contrast. Thankfully, there are so many shades of purple to choose from. If you are fair with cool undertones, a deeper shade of plum will flatter you best. If you are darker skinned, a violet or orchid is best for you. Medium skin tones can pretty much wear all shades of purple. Here are some ways to incorporate purple into your wardrobes.
