The next day at work, I wore a black shirt and purple tie, lots of people commented it was a nice mark of respect. I barely spoke to anyone for 24 hours... And since I have just been enjoying his music so much...

Nothing. I really don't mourn like that. Not to say I Ain't cried or felt bad or cycled through albums and YouTube vids...I'm a private mourner. I don't even do family funerals...let alone some some public Prince gathering or purple symbolic physical item. I understand them and don't find them silly or stupid...just not for me.

I don't believe in an after life aside from the one created by memories, direct and passed on. So....I simply think of him. The examples he's set...how i fall short and what I need to improve make me sad and cry because ongoing guidance and input is gone Frome someone I value. Enuff people are speaking of him now and his legacy is loud enuff so as I don't have to now....so all I do is think...just like my gramma and grandpa and cousin and uncle. All people I love and adore and all only a thought away.

I don't feel the need to mourn in that way, but tried looking for my misplaced prince shirt. I considered a purple turtleneck but couldn't look at it without thinking of kris jenner lol

cool I wore a Purple Polo shirt. I purchased this shirt to wear to Prince's concert at Key Arena in Seattle in August of 2004. Right about now I am also thankful that my birthday is in February. That makes my birthstone Amethyst (Purple). He rally was truly my favorite artist. I cannot believe he is Gone. I will miss him!

I usually wear purple, because of Prince. But after hearing the tragic news I went and had my nails done purple and have been wearing something purple everyday: coat, skirt, cardigan, scarf, shoes.

No purple for me, but...anyone remember when Sammy Davis Jr died and Bill Cosby wore an "SDJ" button for an entire season of "The Cosby Show"? Way back then I said to myself, "That's what I'm gonna do if Prince dies." Well, the "Rude Boy" button I bought at the swap meet in the summer of 1983 has been on my shirt everyday since. I've had some "interesting" conversations at work, explaining the "Rude Boy Era" to many who have no idea.

Make it so, Number One...

My purple Sapphire wedding ring. (like lady DIs but purple and yellow gold).
My purple rain shirt.

I like wearing it out because it's worn, not like those shine new fan ones.
No matter the ©️, Paisley Park "official can never ™️ prince. He gave that to us verbally on Oprah in 1996. You can't take prince away from us, corporate. I mean O ( + >

Purple eye shadow and eye liner flicks. I work in customer service so couldn't really change my uniform colour, but I have been considering a new purple tattoo. I have a purple amethyst crystal and rose on my arm. I was thinking of adding a purple crystal ball or face on the wall from the purple rain art work.

Purple blouse for work.

Purple gym shirt and purple sneakers for the gym.

To top it all off, I have a purple purse.

I've always kept something in my wardrobe that is purple just in case I attend a Prince concert again (been to 9). Sad that none of us will have that opportunity again but we will always celebrate his life!!

Be glad and rejoice for the Lord has done marvelous things!

They're so comfy. I never untie the laces, I just slip them on.
