Purple is my favorite color in the entire world, which is why I have dedicated my iPhone case, bedroom walls, and even my hair color to honoring it. Blue, red, green, orange, etc. are no match to the superiority that purple is. There's just something about purple that makes people feel fantastic! It’s kind of impossible for anyone to try to convince me that purple is not the best color in the world, and here are my reasons why.

1. Purple is often associated with royalty or magic

Queens and Kings for years have worn purple robes in honor of their status as royalty. I mean, if this isn’t proof that those who love purple aren’t already queens, then I don’t know what is!

2. The Color Purple by Alice Walker

The Color Purple is a book we all know and love. We not only learned about the horrors of slavery, but we also shared in the story of one woman's search for identity. For one amazing story to be named after this color must mean that purple is pretty damn awesome.

3. Purple is the only color that looks awesome on everyone

Whether purple is in someone’s hair, wardrobe, or even eye color, purple looks perfect on anyone and everyone who wears it. So come on boys and girls; show your purple swag!

4. Lavender is purple, and lavender smells wonderful!

Lavender is used in many recipes, teas, and bath products because it is so wonderfully calming. Along with that, lavender has anti-microbial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory properties, which makes it awesome for your health. I don’t know anyone who dislikes lavender. I mean, who would? It’s awesome and relaxing!

5. Purple looks beautiful in every hue

Some colors look kind of gross the lighter or darker they get, but purple will forever be timeless, no matter what hue it has. If you mix any color with purple it only comes out as an even more beautiful shade than it was before. Purple can never be ruined.

6. Even the word "purple" is fun to say

Come on, say it with me now: PUR-PLE!

7. We can’t forget about Prince!

The late Prince dedicated one of his own hit songs to PURPLE rain! If this musical legend loves purple then it must be a pretty special color!

8. Purple is a mixture of blue and red

Purple is socially conscious! It doesn’t discriminate against colors! It wants us all to live in harmony with one another. Let's all wear purple to show our pride in all races, genders, ethniticies, etc.!

9. Purple makes people happy

I don't know anyone who isn't happy when they look at purple. I mean, it makes me happy at least, and there’s nothing wrong with that!
