“Summer sales quickly reached by Underground” by Mary Koop | Style Imitating Art

It is time again to get artsy and stylish! Here is the next challenge for Style Imitating Art.

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 SalazarShelbee, 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

Since summer, summer rain, and summer sales are on the way, Salazar thought this London Underground poster would be a fun one to inspire our outfits. Plus all the umbrellas are a great source for incorporating many different colors and patterns into our looks.

Salazar chose other posters from the London Underground for a previous SIA challenge and that one was really a lot of fun. I think I like this poster even better so I am very excited to get into my closet and see what I can create.

If you are feeling inspired to create your own outfit inspired by this summery poster and you want to be featured in Salazar’s review post on Wednesday, June 4, 2024, please be sure to submit your photos to 14shadesofgreyblog@gmail.com by 10:00 p.m. EST on Tuesday, June 5, 2024.

Happy styling! 

Keeping it on the edge,
