The Color Purple
The Color Purple
A fantastic poem penned by Jenny Joseph entitled Warning begins with this line. ‘When I am an old woman I shall wear purple’. The delightful verse tells of the boundaries attached to those who live a life of continuous accountability. It notes how, when we become older, we can get away with certain things. Many of these things are considered childish, excusable only because she is old. They include devouring all the free samples, setting off fire alarms, walking in the rain in our slippers, picking flowers growing in everyone else’s gardens and even daring to wear purple.
The poem does contain all that is possible and delightful as women age. It acknowledges the constant need to do what is right, to be responsible. It also is a reminder that perhaps we should not hold off on doing things we like until we have reached that certain age. Maybe we should really wear purple now.
If you look around, you often do see women who are more colorfully garbed now then in their younger days. They boldly dress themselves in brilliant reds and bright oranges and even purple. Meanwhile, the younger generation, slouch about in the safe colors, basic black and muted shades. Yet, in Ms. Joseph’s poem, the woman does wear what is for her a clashing combination: a red hat with a purple outfit. Yet, it is possible for many women to combine these colors beautifully and harmoniously into their wardrobe.
Choosing bright and bold colors does not reveal or indicate a lack of taste or fashion sense. In certain accessories, for example silk scarves and shawls, pulsating hues can look absolutely stunning. It does not matter whether the shades form part of a floral pattern or abstract design or comprise the colors of checkers and stripes. The colors comprising hand dyed scarves and hand painted shawls are brilliantly harmonized and never fall short in providing a sense of attractive elegance and style to the wearer. You do not and should not wait until you are old to wear them. They look marvelous on women of all ages. Combine them with the right outfit – contrasting or matching, and the overall effect is both discerning and dazzling.
It is any woman’s prerogative to wear purple. It is also her right to select and wear a hand painted silk scarf or shawl. These accessories rank among the most fashionable and essential items to be found in any woman’s closet. From age 18 to 80, you are certain to find a design among the many completely unique patterns that both appeal to and suit you. The versatility of these accessories means you can alter any garment in literally seconds. You can wear purple in or with a beautiful silk scarf or shawl as part of a traditional look or one that favors any worn by today’s celebrities.
