Salazar In The Garden
Posted: June 27, 2022 Filed under: Clothes, Style Imitating Art | Tags: blue, brown, brown spectator shoes, floral waistcoat, navy wide-leg pants, style imitating art, white, white lace top 1 CommentFor this week’s SIA, inspired by Carl Larsson’s “Karin at the Shore“, I knew I’d wear this floral waistcoat, as it’s perfect for the flowers in the painting – in fact, I think it even features the same lilies as the painting! For the rest of the outfit, I didn’t want anything too dark and heavy (it is the summer, after all), but I did want to reference the woman’s dress in some way. In the end, I went with this white lace top and navy pants, because if you look closely, there are white lace trims on her dress. The shoes were, I admit, an afterthought, so I just picked what went well with the outfit rather than referencing the painting, but this pair is neutral enough so they’re all right. All in all, I’m quite pleased with how the outfit turned out.
If you haven’t send me your outfits, you still have until tomorrow, and don’t forget to come back on Wednesday to see how everybody did!
Salazar, what a pretty waistcoat and outfit! The floral print is totally on point with the painting. I really like your shoes, too. The colors and style are perfect with this outfit. Great job!
