Now I know we’ve been in the thick of all things holidays and gift guides around these parts as of late… but that doesn’t mean we’d let the month slip by without giving you the full on fun that is my favorite monthly installment of all things COLOR CRUSH!! For a little recap, the past few roundups we’ve focused on Charismatic Chartreuse, Animal Instinct, Beautiful Burgundy and Olive Green but if you told me that this next feature would be on my radar I’d definitely have called you crazy…

Never have I ever been one to put much attention towards purple… let’s just say it doesn’t rank high on my favorite color list BUT it’s time we talk lavender = my newest color crush that feels dreamy, soft and just a little bit playful. There’s something about this pretty shade that gives still plays into my love of all things pastel and pretty—it’s a GORGEOUS shade for winter days, home decor, and any moment that calls for a touch of whimsy and I’ve really been loving this lighter colored tone as of late. Consider this your friendly nudge to bring a little lavender into the mix… trust me, she’s having a moment!!

Case in point… since we’re chatting about cozy + comfy attire a lot during these dreary winter days, it’s time to kick things off with the dreamiest winter pairing—this soft lavender Sigma Turtleneck Sweater from Free People [wearing XS, runs a little large] is pure cozy bliss. It has an oversized fit with slouchy neckline and the relaxed silhouette makes it the kind of sweater you want to live in all season long, and the color feels like a little pop of pretty on even the chilliest days. And P.S. if purple still isn’t your focus, it comes in four additional color options as well!
I paired it with some of my most favorite denim as of late… the Maeve Scallop-Edge Wide-Leg Jeans, [run TTS, wearing size 24] which give the entire ensemble that effortless, laid-back structure I love but still dressy enough for your next winter night out… think elevated denim with a fun twist thanks to the subtle scallop detail and a super-flattering high rise we can all agree on! This full on fit is SO easy to wear—an elevated winter lavender look, done the Hello Happiness way.



And because one shade of lavender is never enough this time of year, I pulled together even more pretty-purple finds to keep the color crush going strong well into the rest of winter. From lots of lovely layers and sporty staples to pretty home accents and a few glam + girly accessories = it’s a major winter color crush this season. Think soft knits, fun gingham, standout dresses, pastel sneakers, and all the little extras that make everyday life feel a touch more whimsical. If you’re looking to add a pop of pretty purple to your closet or your space, this roundup is filled with can’t-miss finds to shop, swoon over, and absolutely crush on forever more…
