The nights are closing in, it's time for you to cosy up by that log fire and bring back a rosy glow to your cheeks... And what better than to swathe yourself in ruffles and warm colours such purple. The perfect transitional shade between seasons, it works for both make-up and clothing. Think lilac and mauve during the day and as a more vampish darker violet at night.
Ruffles and bows have made a great appearance this season, both on the big screen in the visually stunning 19th Century romance Bright Star and also on the catwalks at Salon.
