the power of plum

The color purple has long been associated with royalty, wealth, power and leadership. It is a combination of red and blue, masculine and feminine, warm and cool. From bordeaux to marsala, shades of purple have also long been a fall staple, and this year’s take on the shade is plum.

This hue has the authority of black, but is much richer and more exciting. Surprisingly, it is just about as versatile as black, too; it can be paired easily with an array of other colors. If you’re feeling adventurous, choose a vibrant contrasting color to make a bold statement. We are particularly fond of a fall-worthy shade of green! But if that’s not your thing, select lighter neutrals such as white, taupe, grey or khaki.

Whether it’s for business or pleasure, plum is both elegant and energetic. Behold, the power of plum!
