I often have those waves when I find something very pretty (clothing) and then I also buy a lot of it. Like a few weeks ago when I had a purple wave, buying a purple trouser suit and lilac trousers. And now again with this beautiful purple pencil skirt. I’ve never been very fond of the color purple, but I think lilac is a gorgeous color. Or different shades of purple together.
I am in a purple wave! Purpe pencil skirt!
But I saw this trouser suit, in purple, actually I first saw the trousers and then I thought, it’s would be very nice to make a suit out of it and buy the blazer as well. Then I also bought these trousers in a slightly more lilac color. And then came this purple skirt! No idea if I had anything to wear on it but I just thought it was to nice to leave it. So that’s what I mean by those waves. I had a purple wave….
I don’t know if it has anything to do with the Very Peri thing we see everywhere. I think so, our brains get influenced even when we don’t want to. But I think I have enough purple now to last the hole season.
How I style a purple pencil skirt.
Okay, so then the skirt came in, after I had to exchange the size of course, thanks Zara, but what are we going to wear with it. There is actually so much you can do with this color. Any other color does look good with this purple pencil skirt, green, pink, white, really any color! But I choose to be monochrome, which I love a lot, and wear this sweater on it. Very simple, you know I like a simple look. ( had to buy the sweater, didn’t have a purple one…..)
But I did add a scarf! Haha, will not wear that again, just don’t like scarfs on me that much. Damn, I should have worn it in my hair! I also wear a flower pin, love to wear it on the belt too. Very light weight earrings and my statement lilac ring. Lots of accesories, just wanted to try it because the outfit is very simple. but it is to much for me. Next time I will leave the scarf and pin at home….
I would really appreciate it if you would follow me on Instagram.

Yes I have to say that they have great dresses at the moment in their collections!
The richness of purple always grabs me. It’s not girly pink but still femine. Let’s say it’s more ‘womanly’ and luscious!

Thank you very much Jess, enjoy your weekend!
I do that too: last year I was looking for red and some yellow things to add to my closet. This year, it won’t be a color but I want to add some florals mainly tops this spring and summer. Yes, the scarf would be fun in your hair!

Thank you very much!
I used to wear purple and lilac quite a lot about 15 years ago, when I would have claimed purple was my favourite colour. Then I somehow went off it and hardly wore any purple for years. Now it’s back in my wardrobe. I particularly love a vibrant purple worn with orange! Loving your monochrome purple look, and of course you had to buy a purple jumper too 🙂 Have a lovely, and hopefully, sunny weekend Nancy. How are your plans for the UK coming along? xxx

Oh yes, purple and orange! We have booked 4nights in our favorite b&b! Two more weeks to go! Enjoy your weekend too!
Totally loving this outfit, Nancy! I was a huge fan of purple before Pantone declared Very Peri to be the color of the year. Such rich color in these purples too.

Yes you see purple everywhere now. I appreciate the color much more now.
I’m sure we are influenced with colors, but maybe that’s a good thing?? It’s nice to see some bright and pretty colors especially for the springtime.
I love you in purple like this Nancy,
XOXO

Oh I do think that being influenced is a good thing. Otherwise it would be very boring. Thanks Jodie!
That’s a great color on you, and as I’m sure you know, purple is the color of royalty! Happy Friday!
