Purple Haze

June 25th, 2012

Twigs & Honey Flower, Ray-Ban Sunglasses, Joie Top, Zara Skirt, Vintage Chanel Bag, Prada Heels, Topshop Cuffs, XIV Karats and Melissa Joy Manning Rings

 This blouse is a bit of an anomaly in my closet since I’m usually opposed to any colors that even closely resemble purple. I bought it last winter and somehow it’s become one of those pieces I’ve been pairing with just about everything – from white skinny jeans to my leather mini skirt. I wore this out for brunch this past weekend with friends in Venice and after a very filling meal, I was quite content that I had chosen such a voluminous top.

    Echoing lots of others here, but the purple looks GREAT on you! I thought this look seemed really refreshed–maybe because I’m not used to the purple!

    i love the way this blouse looks with the skirt-the soft ruffles of the fabric are almost like a relaxed version of a peplum!

    Sorry Emily, you should have stuck with your gut instinct on this one. Whilst the color is flattering, the style is not – it definitely adds 10 pounds. Better luck next time!

    Emily,
    I love the flower, it makes the outfit a bit more whimsical. Oh and I totally wear billowy tops too when i’m going out for a more-yummy-than-usual dinner…lol ;-)

    Actually, I don’t think this outfit flows :( and you’re my number one inspiration usually…it’s a bit choppy and doesn’t really inspire me this time…sorry

    Your gold cuff links and your shoes are quite a match. Plus your top blew me away, you look fabulous in it. All you need are a pair of sexy Shamballa earrings and that would complete your whole look.

    I’m currently obsessed with plain cooper cuffs! The purple is a great colour on you.

    Hi Emily: Out of all the awesome shoes you have these Pradas are in my top 5 favorites. I have been searching for a while for them in another brand…and I found one I love. I hope they fit! I ordered them today!
