Today we're talking about Pantone's Color of the Year - Ultra Violet. Which is a truly beautiful color, especially if you're a flower.

My Grandma gave me this African Violet 27 years ago... |
Although I do think it's very pretty, I'm never going to wear ultra violet. If I did, though, I might buy this gorgeous cashmere sweater from Bloomingdale's. But I can't, so I won't.
You're much more likely to find me in Chili Oil. By the way, who comes up with these names? I want that job.

And now it's time to link up! I hope you'll join us again this week, and follow along with #theblendedblogstyle.
Bha hah, too funny and Chili Oil it is, I like that much better. LOVE that top. Crazy colors for sure!
ReplyDeleteRight - chili oil? I don't even know what that is!
DeleteGreat point and I wouldn't wear the color of the rivalry either. I like you better in chili oil too!
ReplyDeleteThanks friend!
DeleteI don't think I own any purple - now that I think of it. I know - who comes up with those names.

Why doesn't anyone have any purple? It's so pretty!
DeleteFor the same reason that I will never wear blue and gold together. Go green!
ReplyDeleteI knew you'd understand!
DeleteOh my goodness! You are cracking me up! Purple is my favorite color and so I do wear it except for game days because we hate LSU! I was recently wearing a purple t-shirt around the house on game day and Wayne asked me to go change and put my Bama tee on instead! Rivalries are the best!
ReplyDeleteI bet you look great in purple!
Deletehaha, you are too funny. Purple is one of my favorite colors, so I'm embracing it and going out to buy everything purple!
ReplyDeleteI love the color, wish I could wear it!
DeleteYou have that plant for so many years? Weer call it a Kaaps Viooltje. I can totally understand why you will never wear violet😂😂😂😂
ReplyDeleteYes, my grandma gave it to me as a housewarming gift when we got married. My husband takes care of it - I would have killed it by now!
DeleteI am really impressed you have kept that violet alive for so long! I wish I had a green thumb like that! I love what a loyal fan you are that you won't be wearing purple! There are so many other great choices for spring though!
ReplyDeleteYes, I'm loving all the spring colors! My husband is in charge of the violet - I kill all plants!
DeleteAha, the rivalry! Really pretty color, though. I wear it!
ReplyDeleteIt is pretty and I'm sure it's gorgeous on you!
DeleteWell, how funny, our flagship university, LSU's colors are purple and gold but purple is not my best color. Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteI think those are popular university colors. They are pretty!
DeleteI want an african violet and I think it was because of something you posted earlier this week...I may steal it when I visit.
ReplyDeleteI put it on IG this week. They're not allowed in Canada.
DeleteI'm with you, not too drawn to ultra violet! I think it's kinda funny about the color of the year, who cares, right? Wear what you love regardless of the color!
ReplyDeletexo,
Kellyann
Yes, I totally agree Kellyann. I do like the color on other people!
DeleteI'm not drawn to this color either. Love you in Chili!! I have a few different shades of purple in my wardrobe but not much...maybe those purple pants I have!
ReplyDeletePurple pants are the best!
DeleteToo funny Lana! I have to say, Chili Oil is a pretty solid color too.
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my favorites.
DeleteI love the shade of maroon you are wearing. The purple is really bright and looks like it might be fun to wear in spring or summer!

I agree - I think it will make a great spring color!
DeleteIt's right not to wear it. If it's not you, it will not look great. Thanks for linking up to Top of the World Style.
