  5. For the longest time I never wore purple then a few years ago I branched out - I think my favourite item is my F21 purple coat! Just bought some purple boat shoes too (sounds weird but I do go boating lol).

    Yep, definitely having a thing for purple shoes - esp the MJ and the Ferriti ones. Love!

  13. Yeah for purple!!!! Love all the vibrancy!

  14. I am usually put-off by the popping perkiness of purple. It just seems too demanding in a "look at me I am a colour you loved when you were 14 and that you will love again when you are 80." Many of these purples are pleasing in a way that doesn't make me Grimace.

  75. I've had my eye on a bright purple coach bag from the purse vender across the street. Though definitely completely fake, that probably sounds so trashy that I'm even looking but I can't help it! I'm a moth to bright purple flame!
