Colour Inspiration: Purple, Lilac & Champagne Gold

 

Today's colour feature was inspired by the email we received below:

Hi, 

Was introduced to your site today by a friend. I love what i've seen thus far. Kudos.

Thinking of making use of these colours: purple + lilac + champagne gold for my wedding coming up in a few months.

Please do these work?

Thank you.

Lori.

 

Purple and Lilac pair excellently together like a fine wine and cheese, while champagne gold is a perfect neutral metallic shade for that added that luxurious glow. 

Purple represents royalty, wealth prosperity and influence. Lilac represents delicate femininity. Gold arouses feelings of luxury, taste, warmth and culture.

According to pantone, Radiant Orchid (a shade that fall somewhere between purple and liac) is the colour of year for 2014, so if you're still unsure remember that you have a full stamp of approval from the world's authority on colour!
