Two Birds' Inspiration photo was Katie Holmes in her chambray dress so I delved into the depths of my closet to find my blue t-shirt dress and this necklace. I haven't worn either one in a very long time so I was happy to cross a few more items off my personal challenge to wear everything in my closet.
It's my turn to host Style Imitating Art (SIA) so now I'd like to invite you to join in on the outfit inspiration fun with this piece:
This is Georgia O'Keeffe's From the Plains II. I think it's so exciting and summery and zing! It's so great I couldn't even make that last sentence make grammatical sense! Wear an outfit inspired by this amazing thing and email me your photo with your blog/post link if you have one. You have about a week to send me your photos by Monday the 13th and I'll compile everyone's looks into a post next week! My email address is:
thriftedshift@gmail.com
I hope you'll participate!

I'm so excited about this Georgia O'Keefe painting!! It looks like a tribute to the severity of summer or desert heat (which we can all relate to after the summer we just had)... I can't wait to participate! And... There's nothing like finding the perfect outfit in the back of your closet!

Hello Mrs Holmes! You look totally like her! Love the outfit! I'd definitely love to participate in your Art challenge, if I can get a camera battery in time! Hope you are well!
ReplyDeleteokay, this is the perfect colour scheme for me but I'm so super behind with all my posts and I can't create the outfit. it's a shame! but your blue dress looks beautiful with all the studs around it!

ReplyDeleteGreat version of the 'Inspiration' -- you look better than Ms. Holmes. I loved the effort of the necklace and the sandals. The both are awesome!
ReplyDeleteI just might have to enter into the contest because I love Georgia O'Keeffe. Have you seen her museum in Santa Fe NM? o my gawsh - is it so nice, comfortable and well done. I'll see what my bracelets will come up with.... ummm.
Uh-huh, grandkids are the best!!!
Beautiful expressions of taste.
ReplyDeleteOh man, when you said O'Keeffe this is not what I had in mind--this is way better! Outfit already brewing :D
