Default Purple Suede?

Other than black and gray, what else would this match? I'm having trouble committing, but I really love the color! (Also, would anyone happen to know what this color is/was called? Coach usually has prettier names than just plain "purple.")

I love that wine color there. So beautiful and quite demure. I would pair it with these options.

For work: Light lavender-colored shirts paired with dark brown pants.

For day/night: White babydoll dress paired with turquoise flats.

I am drawn to that color bag more than any other. My closet will prove it!

It seems to go with much of what I own, too... I'm not very good at pointing out colors and I DO tend to wear a lot of black slacks with various tops/sweaters... but I also wear other colors and I swear, that purple/maroon/wine color goes with so much!

It would add color to any neutral outfit. You can also find a scarf with both that color and other colors in your outfit.

I have this bag and I L.O.V.E. it! It goes with a lot of colors but my favorites are the gem colors (turquoise, green, coral, etc). It goes with a lot more than you would think!

"This" is totally georgeous! I would go for it!!
I love putting purple (or how 'bout aubergine??) with browns and greens. I agree with others here that it will match more than you might think!
I say commit, commit, commit!!

I have a plum suede bag and I basically treat it as a neutral and wear it with more or less anything, except bright red! I love it with browns, jeans, khakis, and everything else people here have laready mentioned! Congrats on the bag - it's adorable!
