About Style Imitating Art
Style Imitating Art is hosted by Salazar of 14 Shades of Grey, Terri of Meadow Tree 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 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, 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!
This Week’s Presenter
It is Salazar’s turn to choose the art. She chose “Sunspots” by Swiss artist Cuno Amiet. Salazar chose this piece because she was drawn to the abstract depiction of the sunlight as well as the various shades of green that will translate into some fabulous outfit ideas.
The Artwork
Sunspots by Cuno Amiet
You all know that green is my forever favorite color, so I am also drawn to the various shades of verdigris. And the woman in the portrait is wearing a kimono, my forever favorite garment. It’s like Salazar chose this work specifically for me! Now to figure out what I am going to wear.
If you want to join us for this week’s challenge and be featured with your art inspired outfit in Salazar’s review post on September 21, 2022, be sure to submit your photos to her at 14shadesofgreyblog@gmail.com by 10:00 p.m. EST on Tuesday, September 20, 2022.
Happy styling!

When I first saw this pic, I just assumed you’d chosen it, Shelbee! LOL! I keep having intentions to join in the SIA challenge but something keeps getting in the way. Let’s hope I can take part next week, because it’s a fabulous piece of artwork. The colours are magnificent!
Big hugs

Thanks, Suzy! It is definitely a piece that I would have chosen had I known of is existence! Haha. The colors and the kimono are so beautiful and right up my alley, for sure. I do hope you are able to join us this time!
