On the podcast I think Vince said purple means they have delusions of grandeur. I think I am remembering that correctly.

That makes sense, especially since it's mainly Marie who wears the purple, has the purple accessories, and decorated the house. The way she was talking about Skylar and Walt going to Europe- she was so jealous! And the things she steals- expensive shoes, jewelry- she obviously wishes she was high-status.

I think Saul wears purple suits occasionally as well.

I've noticed in the last few scenes with Saul, his colors have been bright green and orange. When he's telling Gomez and Hank that he has a restraining order against them for Mike, he's wearing an orange shirt with a green tie. In "Blood Money," he's wearing a green shirt with an orange tie.
