To me, color is the fun part of an outfit so I thought I’d do a series on the color purple.  Historically this color is relatively rare in nature, thus was more expensive to create.  Now we can find it in most everything!  So I grabbed a lilac jacket from my closet, a darker purple shirt from Nancy’s closet and lavender pants from mom’s closet to create and show some different combinations.  Since it’s starting to cool off where we live and hence we think darker colors, I started off this sequence with using the color grey as pairing to purple.
