Idris Elba was photographed at Heathrow yesterday just 3 days after being awarded the Order of the British Empire. It was a big day for him and his family, obviously. And I love the colour selection for the occasion:
Purple.
It’s the colour of royalty, non?
I mean, sh-t, there is nothing low class about this:
