Purple Passion

While I wandered aimlessly through Nordstrom’s this past weekend, I spotted these deep purple beauties. OMG, I absolutely love them, and I can tell you they’re even prettier in person! But at over $700.00, they’re a bit out of my comfort zone. (Plus, I can guarantee my husband would probably blow a gasket if I slapped the Visa card down on a pair of $700.00 shoes!  He just doesn’t understand…. Anyway, these gorgeous jewel-toned Jimmy Choo’s got me thinking about the use of purple tones in interior spaces. I’ve got to admit, I’ve never really used this color much, and I would probably recommend using  a bit of caution if you plan on draping  an entire room with this dominant color (unless it’s a nursery or child’s room). But it’s gorgeous used as accents and accessories!  

So let’s check out some spaces that even the artist formally known as Prince would find swoon-worthy!

I had to add this Fruitful Folds: Designer Dror Benshetrit  Peacock chair exhibited at the recent ICFF 2009 in New York. Designed forCappellini, no weaving, sewing or upholstery glue was applied to the comfortable lounge seat with a price tag too high to mention on my site. Hey, it’s art!
