Besides being my favorite color, it’s important to know how to wear purple. A very powerful and bold choice, I cannot help but associate the color with strong, independent people. I mean, it is considered the royal color.
Especially perfect for the festive holiday season, purple is probably what’s lacking in your party outfit. Add a splash of the jewel-tone hue and you will be an instant fashion hit.
