Useless fact: In 2003, a very odd species of frog was found in the Ghat hills in
India - a nose frog from Sahyadra. It's a shapeless purple blob, 3 inches long with
a pointy snout that lives underground, only surfacing two weeks a year to mate.
(Sounds like the perfect husband to me.)

It's a fact - in a rich setting, purple accessories really add a punch!
Aahhh, what a feast an rest for my tired eyes! Purple is my fetish so I love all these pictures. And on bad days I could totally envision as a shapeless purple blob who only surfaces for a very short while to mate ;)

I think purple is beautiful, but not a fan of decorating with it. These pictures are amazing...it seems to be very nice in a victorian setting. This was fun! Mary
ReplyDeleteI love purple and am bringing into my home more and more. I love the last photo purple and torquise what a great combo...
ReplyDeletePurple is very pretty in these beautiful settings. I think purple velvet is especially lovely and of course lavender is always wonderful. Love all the pretty pillows. xx
ReplyDeleteI'm not really a fan of purple, it might be because it's not red and it's not blue, it's a strange mixture of the two...but I do like the photo from AD, it's slightly subdued and the velvet softens the intensity of the colour. Beautiful images though...Sharon x
