purple is in, but not in retail stores

August 26th, 2008 · posted by Jean Vouté Pratt in trends

Purple is everywhere, it’s being called the color of the moment. Almost every style blog has written something about purple, including us! Yet, you certainly wouldn’t know it walking through a retail store. Did they miss the meeting? Or did someone forget to let them in on it? Did they misjudge how big purple would be? I mean, we have been told ’till we are blue in the face that purple is the color to have; we want it, but we can’t seem to get it. I expected to walk into the store and see purple everywhere, but sadly no. I will say, the shoe and accessory retailers are on it. Places like Nine West, Steve Madden, Gucci, and Baker Shoes have a beautiful representation of the purple trend. So, if you’re desperate to add a pop of purple to your life, you have your pick of handbags and shoes. Or you can scour the web, like I’m going to do, to find that great top or dress. Heck, now I’m obsessing that I might just paint my car purple. Happy purple hunting!
