  15. I love lavender (well, purple in all its forms, really) -- we must've been riding the same stylish wavelength today, CC!

    ReplyDelete
  16. I can wear light pink and jewel-toned purple but for some reason lavender and lilac look awful on me. I can still work this trend into my look with purple eyeshadow and nail polish, though! Small doses of this hue seem to be okay.
