Purple is back

I recently read a blog article on {this is glamorous} about my favorite color, purple, being the it-color this season. I think purple has always been an underrated color. Back in the middle ages, the mauve dye had cost more than gold at one point because it was so hard to make that color dye.

Found these cool pics from that blog.




And other random things that I always adored: lace design, peonies (yes, pictures taken from the same source).
