purple prose

I believe Ling-Ling introduced me to the term "purple prose" in describing one unfortunate ex-suitor's writing style so many years ago. It was pretty bad, though. Overtly, overly decorative and with all these convoluted, unnecessary flourishes. Sort of like this necklace that is "so tacky it's cool."

Purple cardigan: Uniqlo. Gray thermal top: Old Navy courtesy of M80. Necklace: SoGood Jewelry. Black tiered miniskirt: secondhand, gift. Purple tights: H&M. Plaid shoes: Keds.
