They're both gorgeous, but my preference is for the purple, for three
purely subjective reasons. 1. I just don't like green. Some greens are OK,
and there's an exception to every rule (Atlantii, for example, have their
own funky appeal). 2. Some metallic or metallic-leaning colors are just a
little harsh for my tastes. I'll pick a solid color in any palette or
configuration over a metallic or iridescent 98% of the time. 3. Despite the
aversion to a perceived harshness, I thoroughly enjoy bold and brash.
Purple fits that bill.
