SIA: Decline Of The Day

Welcome to another week of SIA! This week’s inspiration is “Decline of the Day” by Emperor Ham Nghi, the Vietnamese monarch in exile, and although several people said it was going to be a difficult one to translate into an outfit, everybody came out in style. Let’s get started!

First up is our co-host, Shelbee, who chose a teal dress and duster coat to represent the “column of green” in the painting, combined with earth-tone boots and hat, and a blue scarf for the hills in the distance:

Up next is Michelle, who paired a lovely printed green tunic with brown leggings and boots (brown boots seem to be a favorite for this challenge):

Suzy built her outfit around this green top, and added some colors with her fabulous scarf and coat:

Reni has a slightly different approach – her floral dress is a nice change and hints of spring to come:

Sally focuses on the unexpected color combination of brown and green with denim blue and various muted light colors washed across the sky – is her top perfect or what?

Marsha went with a floral print as well – and I love the touch of mauve in her scarf:

My other co-host, Terri, also chose brown and green as the basis for her outfit:

And finally, here’s me:

Big thanks to everybody for participating! Don’t forget to come back next week for a new challenge, hosted by Terri!
