Purple, plum, merlot, Bordeaux– these are fall’s pretty colors. So it is no surprise to see them on practically every type of merchandise this season, from clothes to accessories.

But what are the chances of finding two celebrities in the same color while appearing on the same TV show? It would be implausible, right? Unless, of course, those celebrities are named Shay Mitchell and Maria Menounos.

Whether serendipitous or pre-meditated, the two gorgeous ladies were spotted wearing the same shade of purple while appearing on Extra the other day.

Shay’s version of purple was a breezy cowl neck shift, while Maria’s was a skintight number that showcased her curves:

As you can see, both ladies look undeniably beautiful in their purple dresses. But who do you think looks better in the color? And if you had a choice, whose dress would you prefer to wear?
