Dear Leny,
Interesting to read about what purple means in different countries.
Here purple is considered a color for elder women; and sometimes with the condescending remark "the last color". I might adopt that sentence about "royalty and nobility" in stead, don't you think?

Dearest Ida,
You're right, it's better to adopt it as for "Royalty and Nobility". Me, I feel so "Classy" every time I wear color purple rather than to think that it's for the aged :( and for mourning.
Love, Leny
