Style Imitating Art Inspiration: Buttons by Dani Vaughn-Tucker
ABOUT STYLE IMITATING ART Style Imitating Art challenges us to draw style inspiration from pieces of art. 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 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. INSPIRATION ART WORK I took this picture waaaaaay back in 2012 when I first learning about photography. I look at the image and I see all the technical errors, and I cringe but I love…

Style Imitating Art: Ali Ibn Hamzeh Shrine in Shiraz, Iran
Hi, how was your weekend? Ours was OK. We didn’t do too much. A bit of grocery shopping, that’s about it. It’s been rainy and cold here, so we didn’t really feel like going anywhere. I can’t wait for Spring to arrive. I don’t mind the rain, I do mind the cold AND the rain though. But, what are you gonna do, right?

I hope you’ve had a great week so far. Things have been OK on my side. Not gonna lie, I’m so over this weather. One day it’s almost summer and the next it’s like winter is having a second life. I can’t deal. I wasn’t made for rollercoasters, especially when it comes to temps. On a positive note, I’m down 6 lbs. Yay! A few months ago, I was told that I’m pre-diabetic and need to lose some…

Style Imitating Art: The End of Romance by Erte
Hi and welcome to another round of Style Imitating Art. Have you guys been experiencing the bizarre warm-cold-warm-cold weather like us? Honestly, there were a couple of days where I wanted to pack my bags and move to the actual equator. And a few where I was like ahhhh, Louisiana, this is why I love you. I need consistent temps. That being said, these pictures were taken during the summer because the weather has been way too flaky to try to take some new ones.

Do you ever get up in the morning, look in your closet and think, I have nothing to wear? Or do you feel totally uninspired by what you see hanging up? That was me last Friday. I think I tried three different looks before I ended up sitting at the foot of my bed and watching TV. Fridays are casual days for us at work and, as much as I love wearing my jeans, there are times when I’m…
