welcome to purple week!

Welcome to Purple Week here at kelinda.KELINDA! I'll be wearing something featuring my favorite grapey hue every day of the week, and I'll also be featuring all of the lovely purple-y outfits you all have sent in to me. After all, the more purple love during Purple Week, the merrier!

To kick things off this afternoon until I update again this evening with my own purple OOTD, here's Boyfriend, rocking a manly purple shirt from this past weekend:


And just so you guys don't miss me too much from now until 7 p.m., here I am giving you all The Crazy Face to tide you over:


Now, here are your Purple Week ensembles!

If you've ever read Tara K's Mix and Match Fashion (which you should!), you'd find out pretty quick that this stylish lady knows a thing or two about awesome color and pattern pairings. Here, she's sporting a perfect summer outfit, and in one of my favorite color combos, too -- purple + yellow!

This outfit from Lisa of respect the shoes showcases the reasons why I love her style: the unexpectedness of the orange, gray, yellow, burgundy, green, and purple colorblocking, the sassiness of the outfit, and the incredible way she always pulls it off with such aplomb. Teach me!

You better believe that I'm going to take a page from AppGal's (Musings on the Mountain) outfit here and do my own "stripes + purple" pairing this week! This look is so fun and flirty, and the swishy skirt just makes me smile.

Dea here of the Dea Diaries is always cute as a button. I mean, look at the fun ruffles, and the romantic yellow-tipped skirt! I want it all... and throw in that gorgeous bag while you're at it, too, please.

This is why I love reader submissions -- I just discovered a new blogger to follow! Aili from Jane Squared sent this in and I just love how lady-like this is. The soft purple and green is such a wonderful pairing, and something I never thought of doing before. Ah, you gotta love inspiration...

LinkGo show ADC some love over at A Daily Checklist -- she has such a feminine eye to outfits that I just adore. I mean, look at that yellow pencil skirt. Just look at it. Is it not the perfect thing to wear with the almost-lavender cardigan? I want it. It needs to be in my closet.

I don't know what I like more about this picture -- the big, rolling clouds in the blue sky, or that festive purple-printed skirt on gorgeous Julie (Julie of All Trades)! I know I always appreciate a fun print when I see one, and also, I am digging the crossbody bag. Heck yes.
