Elle.com A to Zee: Best of Fall

Inspired by Elle Creative Director Joe Zee’s 26 favorite fall trends, we’re bringing you a great trend every day, from A to Z.

Dig if you will the picture of you and I engaged in P: Purple Reign.
 
The dark velvety color synonymous with a certain musical genius has always been a princely hue, symbolizing royalty, power, and wisdom. Fashionably speaking, it makes for a posh pop of color, adding more warmth than basic black but edgier than a shade like pink.

At shopbop, purple is bringing panache to everything from Chloe key chains to Vince cashmere V necks, but it hits must-have status when cleverly woven into our hottest fall trends.

Open-toe Booties: The front purple zipper is the pièce de résistance on these artful Emilio Puccis.

Fringe: The subtle fade-to-amethyst effect of this Foley + Corinna top is a great way to wear fringe without letting it wear you.

Leather: Grape mixed with traditional black leather on this Alice + Olivia frock takes you from street tough to street-smart-and-stylish.

Boho Chic: A velvet pouch made for a hippie princess, this Antik Batik feels like a fabulous vintage find. (Antiqued brass and kiss-lock closures not your thing? Don't fret. The color purple has its very own category in our handbag assortment.)
