About Style Imitating Art
Style Imitating Art is hosted by Salazar of 14 Shades of Grey, Shelbee of Shelbee on the Edge, and Marsha of Marsha in the Middle. Style Imitating Art challenges us to draw style inspiration from pieces of art. Every other Monday, one of the hosts, acting as presenter, selects an inspiration image that they will each post on their blogs. The following Monday, each host shares her art inspired outfit. Participants are invited to submit their art inspired outfits to the presenter by 10:00 p.m. EST on the Tuesday following the hosts’ art inspired outfit posts. The following day, Wednesday, the presenter will share all of the submissions on her blog.
You don’t have to be a blogger to join either! In fact, you don’t even have to join but you can still use the art to inspire an outfit just for the sake of trying something different. If you want to share your inspired outfit, we invite you do so on Instagram or any other social media platform that you prefer. Just be sure to tag Salazar, Shelbee, or Marsha or use #TeamLOTSStyle and #StyleImitatingArt so the hosts know you have joined. Go have some fun in your closets and join the SIA challenge next week!
This Week’s Presenter
Salazar chose this week’s artwork with Valentine’s Day in mind. With the weather slowly warming up where she lives, Salazar was feeling inspired by the light pinks and muted colors of this painting. By the way, the weather is not warming up where I live. Not even slowly. We are still buried in ice and snow with temperatures staying well below freezing. And I really am quite done with it. Really, really.

Happy styling!
Keeping it on the edge,

I think this is a beautiful painting, but I’m going to have to work hard to meet the challenge.

It really is a gorgeous piece and I am cheating for this one! The weather is so atrocious here that I cannot get outside for photos. I am using an old outfit that I had photographed for a Songful Style challenge but never used. It is pretty perfect for the artwork so I am going for the serendipitous cheat on this one!
