When I was a kid, my favourite colour was purple. I still like purple, in it's various shades and nuances. Subtle, smoky brown-purples, soft blue-purples and pretty pink-purples are the ones I like the most.

Hi Catherine,
I love this post! My niece is obsessed with all things purple. She insisted on taking off her shoes and socks while we were in a restaurant yesterday to show me her sparkly purple toenails. :)
I was going to email to ask you a question but decided to post here instead. I own a white (exterior) house I cannot paint it a colour (3 stories, budget, etc.). What would you suggest as a trim colour? Have you seen any nice images? I have all the trim white currently...I'm not sure if I like it or not. The front door is a whole other issue!
Thanks,
Andrea
Lovely purples, Catherine.
You have some lovely hazy shades of Purple in these beautiful pictures.
you have successfully turned purple into a neutral.
love it.

Another gorgeous post Catherine, divine images and I love all the beautiful shades of purple, just gorgeous, Claire :-)
This one of my favourite blogs, and I just wanted to say thank you. You inspire me all the time -- this post was an especially crisp and fresh breath of air.
Catherine,
My sweet mother's favorite color was purple. This brought back a flood of sweet memories of her. Thanks.
All of the photos are just beautiful. Wish I had a bite of the grape ice cream!

Hi Catherine! this images are lovely I like purple very much too!! I tagged you in my blog for 6 things that make me smile :)
I like your blog very very much
I am in love with the 4th picture down. I could definitely live in this room. The colors are so cool and inviting. I love the slight metallic color next to the muted purple.
WOW!!! these images are divine. I also love purple,especially these dusty, smoky shades. Very sophisticated, very feminine. Gorgeous. Well done Catherine.
I'm a huge fan of purple, ideally in muted/plum/aubergine shades.
Megan Lee, I'm with you on that fourth picture, it's just gorgeous and I would move in in a heartbeat.
Purple is definitely the 'in colour' at moment for fashion and interiors - once again Catherine, the most stunning collection of images - you are too clever xx
gorgeous AS ALWAYS catherine!!!! so many beautiful images. i think we need a book of all your pictures...
Hi Catherine,
You have excelled yourself with a lovely post, all gorgeous images.
My daughter loves purple but apart from lavender and flowers, I have never really been a fan.
You have made me change my mind.
Hugs
Carolyn
Gorgeous collection of images - so glad I found your divine blog. x
I am obsessed with hazy purple at the moment and I've never liked purple anything before! The ice cream and hyacinth pairing is just lush!
What a great post!!! I love purple, it's definitely my favourite colour :) I had a purple lounge room a while back...accessories only (it was a rental)...a lavender fake fur rug (much nicer than it probably sounds), an amethyst throw and amethyst and white fake fur cushions. It looked very pretty and feminine and this post has made me miss it :)
Oh my goodness, I love the purple flowers in the linen tote. How absolutely country chic!
That little bag of flowers on the doorknob is adorable. Nice pictures!
How absolutely lovely! My faves are the flowers in silver and mercury glass vessels!
Gorgeous post Catherine. I love those flirty skirts and the dusty roses but the ice cream is a clever addition to this lovely medley. Julie
I love purple, the deep dark shades and the dark pinky purples,the pale, almost white tints.
You find the most beautiful pictures! I love to stop by your site for some eye candy :).
