The Color Purple

I actually used to wear purple a lot. I mean, a lot. Ask my friends....I had - okay, I still have it - this purple velour track suit that I exercised daily. No, I never actually exercised in it.  While purple still is one of my favorite colors, I've learned to appreciate all shades of the spectrum.

I fell in love with these shorts, not only for their texture (cool, funky pleather), but for their ridiculously low price.  I scored these babies for $10 on the sale rack this weekend. Feels so good!

Add patterns, interesting textures, and some high-heeled booties, and your set :)

Happy Wednesday!
