SIA Gallery of Style | “Count on Me” by Ryan McCallister
Welcome to the SIA Gallery of Style and thank you so much to those of you who joined us for this round of Style Imitating Art!
About Style Imitating Art
Style Imitating Art is hosted by Salazar of 14 Shades of Grey, Terri of MeadowTree Style, and Shelbee of Shelbee on the Edge. Style Imitating Art challenges us to draw style inspiration from pieces of art. Every other Monday, one of the hosts, acting as curator, 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 curator by 10:00 p.m. EST on the Tuesday following the hosts’ art inspired outfit posts. The following day, Wednesday, the curator will share all of the submissions on her blog.
You don’t have to be a blogger to join! You are invited to share your images on Instagram or other social media platforms. Just be sure to tag Salazar, Terri, and Shelbee 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!

What a wonderful variety of colors, styles, and prints in these outfits! The inspiration artwork could be represented in so many different directions, and I love seeing these various personal takes on it. For example, I didn’t think about using the river stones + metalwork to inspire a choice of print; that’s an ingenious approach.

Thanks so much for joining us, Sally! I love all of the outfits that everyone created for this one. I was just looking at the sculpture yesterday and realized that the metal cage work would have been brilliantly represented with my black gladiator sandals instead of cowgirl boots. But I didn’t think of it at the time. Oh well!

You are very welcome, my friend! We tend to have the same few people participate so I go grabbing photos whenever someone forgets to send them to me! I love the dress you wore for this challenge. And, of course, you already know how much I freaking adore this sculpture!

Hahaha, thanks so much, Debra! I have so much fun styling and photographing these art posts. My husband generally cracks me up during these photoshoots so I am really happy that our joy and silliness shines through to make others laugh!
