The color purple celebrates women on the annual holiday, which this year takes places on Friday, March 8. Get into the spirit of #BalanceForBetter by taking fashion ideas from these celebs.
Julianne Moore
Monochromatic ensembles are very in right now, and Moore pulled the look off perfectly, teaming a violet mohair-and-wool-blend Isabel Marant sweater with matching pleated, high-waist pants for an appearance on Good Morning America.
Katy Perry
The American Idol judge proves that you can rock many different shades of purple all at once -- even the lipstick she wore for an appearance on Good Morning America was a gorgeous magenta shade that matched her shoes.
Alessandra Ambrosio
Ready to party? Get flirty in a sparkly mini like the dark purple one the model rocked during Milan Fashion Week. For the Italian outing, she kept warm by adding a deep plum bubble jacket, which perfectly matched her shoes.
Kate Middleton
The Duchess of Cambridge recycled a long-sleeve thistle-hued Emilia Wickstead dress while attending the Global Ministerial Mental Health Summit with her husband, Prince William (not pictured). The knee-length frock, which Middleton paired with nude flats and a pastel mini bag, is a perfect business-ready look.
Nicky Hilton Rothschild
Layers of pastels? Don't mind if she does! The hotel heiress paired a lilac suit with a silky pink top and beaded clutch for the Alice + Olivia show during New York Fashion Week.
Awkawafina
Despite Miami's summer heat, the Crazy Rich Asians actress still rocked a cropped lilac sweater and matching mid-calf-length knit skirt for an appearance at Despierta America. She accessorized with silver heels and a megawatt smile -- definitely a look that can be pulled off in any season.
Kendall Jenner
During New York Fashion Week, the supermodel sported an eye-catching, bright purple suede lace-up mini by Longchamp with tall gladiator sandals and a python-print purse.
Lucy Boynton
The same goes for this silky plum off-the-shoulder gown that the Bohemian Rhapsody wore to the 2019 Oscars, but we can't help but gush over this sumptuous hue.
Leona Lewis
We understand that dressing up in frothy layers of tulle may not be the most practical thing, but we're still very here for this gorgeous pale purple look the British singer wore to Elton John's annual Academy Awards Viewing Party.
Elsa Hosk
In a party mood? Purple sequins like the ones Hosk wore to the 2019 Vanity Fair Oscar Party will definitely do the trick.
Glenn Close
The beloved actress looked just as happy to be in her pale purple suit as we were to see her rock it at the 91st Oscars Nominees Luncheon in Beverly Hills.
Jenna Coleman
The Victoria star played with textures while visiting NYC's Build Studio, looking lovely in a floral velvet dress with a high neckline, flowing sleeves and a black belt.
Meghan Markle
Underneath that bright red Sentaler coat, the pregnant Duchess of Sussex was wearing a royal purple Babaton for Aritzia mini dress while visiting Birkenhead, England, with husband Prince Harry, proving that multiple bold hues can definitely work.
Susan Kelechi Watson
A plunging neckline can be risque, but the This Is Us star's crisscrossed version read more ballet at the 19th Annual AFI Awards.
Jenna Dewan
Spring came early when the former World of Dance host donned this playful patterned wrap dress for the 6th Annual Gold Meets Golden event in Beverly Hills.
Jessica Biel
In love with lilac! Biel showed off her slim frame at a Variety Actors on Actors event in a pastel Roland Mouret jumpsuit with a chevron neckline, finishing off her look with white nails and pointy black pumps.
Melissa McCarthy
Celestial being! The Can You Ever Forgive Me? star left us starry-eyed when she wore this royal purple, bell-sleeved floor-length dress to the 2019 Golden Globe Awards.
Thandie Newton
Pretty purple flowers adorned The Vampire Wife's dress Newton wore to the London premiere of Yardie, a look that could easily go from the office to drinks by slipping into a colorful pair of sandals like the ones she wore for the red carpet occasion.
Cardi B
Get playful and even match your hair to your outfit! That's what the "I Like It" rapper did while heading to film her new Netflix talent show, Rhythm & Flow, in New York City. For the taping, she rocked a head-to-toe light purple latex ensemble and matching bob-length wig, pairing the bold look with a pale yellow purse, white slingbacks and long robin's egg blue nails.
Catherine Zeta-Jones
Make like Zeta-Jones with a magenta hue, which falls in between pink and purple and looked quite lovely with this embroidered keyhole dress. The actress matched her lips and blush to the frock's tone and finished off her look with a silver watch and nude heels.
KiKi Layne
The 27-year-old actress highlighted the lilac piping of her moss green sequined suit with an orchid bow blouse at a Los Angeles screening of her film, If Beale Street Could Talk.
Emma Stone
This is what lavender dreams are made of! The Favourite star looked perfect in this purple sweater-and-skirt set from Louis Vuitton's Cruise 2019 Collection and gold-tip pumps from the fashion house during a photocall at the 75th Venice Film Festival.
Issa Rae
The Insecure creator-actress turned heads in an asymmetric draped dress by Mugler, Sergio Rossi heels, Jennifer Fisher earrings and Alexis Bittar rings ahead of an appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.
Letitia Wright
Go out of this world with a bold galactic suit! The Black Panther star paired this whimsical, spacey blazer-and-pants combo with a tulle underlay, black purse and strappy silver sandals at the Avengers: Infinity War premiere in Los Angeles.
Katie Holmes
If you want to get fancy, take a cue from the Dawson's Creek alum, who looked plum perfect in an elegant eggplant-hued gown by Zac Posen that featured gorgeous floral embroidery for the Brooks Brothers Bicentennial Celebration in New York City. She even finished off her look with lavender makeup, plus a sleek bob.
Suki Waterhouse
Pops of purple can also make for perfection! The 27-year-old actress donned layer upon layer of pastels, including a long fur coat, at the BVLGARI world premiere screening during the 2018 Tribeca Film Festival.
Justine Skye
The "Know Myself" singer certainly knows how to pick an outfit! If you're just in need of a pop of purple, take a hint from Skye's look at the 2018 Soul Train Awards. Her light gray suit featured fun lilac and white fringe, plus she added a pair of orchid pumps for good measure.
