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 is hosted by Kim from Fierce Fashion Blog. Kim is a fifty something style blogger with an eye for color and texture. Please join us in welcoming her.

INSPIRATION ART WORK

Still Life with Blue Enamel Coffeepot Earthenware and Fruit by Vincent van Gogh

Still Life with Blue Enamel Coffeepot Earthenware and Fruit by Vincent van Gogh {Public Domain}

Kim chose this piece by Van Gogh because it’s National Fruit and Vegetable month, so she picked an image that represented the month. How fun is this painting? So much opportunity for colors and prints, don’t you think?

What will you wear? I can’t wait to see.
