dash of purple

suze, of miss vinyl ahoy fame, asked me to participate in a blogger event for domestic violence awareness month. and i'm happy to use my little blog tube for this cause.  


1 in 3 families are affected by domestic violence. domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behaviors — physical, sexual, psychological, and economic coercion — used by one intimate partner against another (adult or adolescent) to gain, maintain, or regain power and control in the relationship. batterers use of a range of tactics to frighten, terrorize, manipulate, hurt, humiliate, blame, often injure, and sometimes kill a current or former intimate partner.
if you are in danger, please call 911, your local hotline, or (in the U.S.) the national domestic violence hotline: (800) 799-7233 or TTY (800) 787-3224.

while today was a dreadful day for any sort of outfit documentation, here's some ways i've worn my purple maxi dress in the past.
