Is Purple the new Black?

Are you'll tired of the "All Black Everything" theme? Well I believe that may all be over. Per my research & from personal visual knowledge, I think my new favorite color; PURPLE, will be the new black! This has been discussed time after time, and now here we are once again. Now if you visit www.style.com, www.elle.com or any other site dedicated to the world of fashion, you would have seen the Runway shows in New York, Milan & so on for SP/10, and you would have seen designers show more than a few pieces with this color; whether alone or incorporated in the design, and we've seen it on the Red Carpets; Sandra Bullock at the Golden Globes, Anna Kendrick at the SAG Awards, and Zoe Saldana had an interesting piece on at the Academy Awards. I am not talking about one shade of purple, I'm talking about the pastel purples to the deep rich shades. I believe the color works best as an accessory, but there are clothing pieces that look fabulous in Purple, like this Michael

Kors gathered knot dress................................ Its from his SP/10 collection with a gathered open ring detail at the neckline, cap sleeves, and the knot detail at the waist. Price is $1.095

Also, the Herve Leger...Novelty Essential Bandage dress..................... This is Pre SP/10 and runs for $1,050.00

As far as accessories are concerned, I give you the Michael Kors Patent Tote in Ultraviolet
This tote bag is ultra fab! Perfect for a Saturday afternoon shopping spree on a warm Spring day, doesn't the color just scream SPRING?! The size of the bag is 15"H*14"W*4"D, it has buckled top handles and the hanging MK logo tag.

Lastly, we have the Purple Heart Necklace/Estelle Collection for Rachel Roy for $195.00, now this is definitely a statement piece!

So, do you think you can rock with purple being the new black? Let me know by taking the poll at the bottom of the page!
