ABOUT STYLE IMITATING ART
Style Imitating Art is hosted by Salazar {14 Shades of Gray}, Kim {Fierce Fashion Blog}, and me. Style Imitating Art challenges us to draw style inspiration from pieces of art. Every other Monday one of us selects an inspiration image and we each post the image on our blogs. The following Monday we share our art inspired outfit. My main tip for participating is not to just look at the colors but look at the textures, think about complimentary colors, etc. In other words, you don’t have to be literal in your interpretation. It’s all about looking at the items in your closet in new and creative ways — mixing colors and patterns and just having fun.
THE CURATOR
This week’s image was chosen by Kim {Fierce Fashion Blog}.
INSPIRATION ART WORK
Autumn {Study of Mery Laurent}
Kim chose this image because “I thought I’d pick an autumn themed piece and once again, I’m drawn to an impressionist. I love that you could embrace the rich browns with ruffles, feathers or fur or the dancing flowers in the background (wallpaper, sky, water?).”
What will you wear? I can’t wait to see.
