This week I’m getting some inspiration from my old friend, ROY G BIV. Well, BIV’s last letter, to be exact. You’re lost? Well, you must remember the scene from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, when one of the grotesque children says, ‘you’re turning violet, Violet!’ and the little girl who couldn’t stop herself from testing the new chewing gum, blows up into a blueberry. If you’re still lost, let me explain. My inspiration this week is drawn from the colour purple. Purple, violet, mauve, lavender – so many names to describe so many shades of one magical, slightly dreamy, colour. I’ve got some real treats for you. From makeup, to nail polish, to this amazing pure lavender oil room spray, which is heavenly. Have a look for yourself!
