Art Inspired Fashion

Art inspired Fashion is making a come back and I couldn’t be happier. Sahily of Pretty-in-Pigment had a pair of shoes that inspired this outfit. They got me thinking me of the modern art of Piet Mondrian and Roy Lichtenstein. Last season, Philip Lim showed Roy Lichtenstein inspired bags that used a graphic of a woman tearing up. This Mondrian inspired color-blocked outfit looks great on Pam Balaguera of the Balaguera Law Firm as she playfully poses in the playground.

It was a happy coincidence that the play-set at the local neighborhood playground matched her outfit so perfectly! As soon as we arrived at the park, we knew that was where we needed to shoot.

As a side note, I love both Mondrian and Lichtenstein! I have a Mondrian inspired whiteboard hanging on my refrigerator. I hope to someday have the real thing on my wall!

High Fashion at Miami Fashion Week

High-end designers showed some of their Spring “ready to wear” looks at Miami Fashion Week. I love that you can see some current trends on the runway at Miami Fashion Week even as Fall runways are coming out later in the year. This is because most women are concerned about what they are wearing for the spring and summer as the days are growing longer and heating up.
