Purple Mania: Purple Senior Prom Dress(from High school)


Hey Everyone!

I was looking around the pictures of my Senior prom, and remembered how pretty was it (is). I have it hanged in my closet in a garment bag to keep it safe and pretty and I am not always openning the bag just to appreciate it. It has embelishments hand sewed and took 2 months to finish the dress and the sewing. My mom and I designed it and I am happy, very happy how it turned out.



That flower arrangement was just breath taking to I had to take a picture next to it.

I think this is it for my Purple Mania series, or maybe not?! Let's see what comes up and I'll update you.

Until next time with this pretty series!

Have a great day!

Purple Mania: Purple on the blog


Hey Everyone!

It's the third post for purple mania! Who's liking the fact that I am giving too much (embarrasing) info about this color? It was a secret affair...well maybe not so much as you can notice in this very own blog. You are right, it's time to talk about the purple in the blog and it's different shades.

It was also an unconcious decision to make the elements of the blog purple, I just wanted something different and was looking at different blogs and never found that many with that color and I figured it was a right choice for me.

After the long intro post of the story why I like this color, i though maybe I could tell you the other meanings I found about the imagery of the color. As I have not much to tell about the blog that you can't already tell.

Here we go. The other meanings were the opression, the slavery and the harm caused towards slaves, and, in the US, the black slaves and how it meant that if their skin bruised, they were not worthy enough, they were not as pressured as white people were. Thankfully slavery has been reduced all over the world and there are organizations fighting it.

This color now, portrays how they were able to overcome all the abuse and be professionals and have the rights they should have had since the begining.  It reminds that after a tough ride there is hope of stepping up and fighting for what is right.

Purple Mania: Purple Phone Case


Hey Everyone!

As promised, here is the second edition of my purple mania series which came up while day dreaming in bed. Click here to read the previous post and all about my purple room.

This time, the post is going to be much shorter because I just have to talk about the case of my phone, the most important thing in my life which keeps me connected while I don't have a laptop with me and to catch up on my emails and everything that happens in twitter and facebook (quite an addict). I have my phone on my hands the majority of the day and yes, it has a purple case. The case is plain, boring purple.  But it changes out the dull black from the actual phone.

I haven't had the time, nor energy to find another case, (actually I have another acrylic one but it is almost falling appart in pieces) but soon I will. I am not complaining about the case, I love the color, it's just that it could be much nicer.





See? It's breaking and all. Someone, please, remind me to change it! 

So here it is, Purple on my phone, purple mania is all I know…

Have a great day!

xo,
