STYLE IMITATING ART INSPIRATION
18th Century Spanish Textile {The image is from the Metropolitan Museum of Art Open Access Collection}
- It’s summer and the flowers are so pretty
- I think I can find something between the clothes in my car and the ones in the RV
You can read more about the textile here.
THE ROUNDUP
Jen, Librarian for Life and Style, totally channeled Royal Wedding vibes with her sweet cloche style hat and pretty orange floral dress that she wore to a wedding. And if you hop over to her blog, you can see more of her wedding guest outfit pictures {along with a surprise guest!}.
Kim is a new SIA participant cheers wildly and is looking to start her own style blog! While she sets up her virtual closet {aka website}, be sure to check her out on instagram: @kim_fiercefashion. I think Kim totally nailed the look between the colors and the floral pattern. And is that an animal print belt I see? Yes!!
Here’s Leslie, Once Upon a Time Happily Ever After, with her SIA interpretation. You guys, I’m so loving Leslie’s maxi cardi, so very stylish. Her color pallet is spot on and the pattern in her top so closely mimics florals in the fabric swatch, that they almost look interchangeable. Check her out here to find out the details of her outfit and for a little behind the scenes fun.
Salazar, 14 Shades of Grey, built her outfit around the neutral tones in the fabric swatch. And while keeping everything neutral, she pumped it up with those oh-so-fab green shoes, which imitate the border in the fabric swatch. And just in case you didn’t know, Salazar has the best whimsical blouse collection ever! Find out the details of her outfit here.
