SIA: Erte: NEC

Today I'm participating in the SIA (Style Imitating Art) Challenge. Here is the piece of art, as chosen by Salazar, of 14 Shades of Grey:

It is Spring Rain, by Erté.


And here is my interpretation:

It is, sadly, NEC (Not Even Close).

I really, really wanted to participate this week because I love the inspiration picture & I hadn't participated in awhile. But, when I was going through my closet trying to put something together, I realized that I don't have any lavender (I settled for plum) and I only own two pieces in green and they are bright green and otherwise all wrong.

So, I went with what I had. Navy, plum and aqua. And orange. Of course I had orange!

Skirt & Blouse: thrifted, vintage Sweater: Target Belt: LOFT Shoes: Seychelles
I have to admit that I was pretty down about my outfit being NEC, but then I spent a couple hours with Jen from Librarian for Life and Style and she made it all better!

Thanks, Jen! And thank you, Salazar, for hosting SIA this week!


Happy Monday, All!
