Prediction: Purple

Move over Miss Cleo, the Wannabe is one clairvoyant fashionista!

Long, long ago, before this blog was created, I told my good friends at FabSugar that grays and purples would be huge this fall.

One trip through Macy's was all it took to prove it.. I was right!

We all know that gray is potentially the new black. But purple was a long time coming.. check these hot, inexpensive styles to get in on the trend.


Urban Outfitters has these delicious peep-toe suede flats for only $28! Can't you just imagine these with some skinnies and a big, gray turtleneck?


Hello, 80s! Sweater dress + octagonal Girlprops earrings.. I'm seeing fabulous in your future!



Purple looks best as an accessory to gray, but this $38.00 Macy's cowlneck dress has me thinking the other way around. Gray knit tights and black ankle boots? Yes, please!



How adorable is this £6.00 coin purse from TopShop? It's a subtle way to slowly incorporate purple into your wardrobe. Bonus: use it in a metallic purse for double style points.

I also see potential for disaster in the future. Be sure to stick to richer purples, rather than light lavenders! The rise of jewel tones is what makes purple so relevant. Also, as with anything, don't go overboard unless you'd like to be a walking reminder of the purple people eater. That miight not go over too well on the streets.


Peace,
The Wannabe
