February: Art to Inspiration

I'm so excited about today's post as it's the first installment of the "Art to Inspiration" project, created by Supal from Chevrons & Eclairs. Every first Wednesday of each month participants produce a post inspired by a work of art as selected by Supal. The collected results will be posted over here.

Today's work of art comes from:

Hiroshi Matsumoto, December 2010 - 4 

I was inspired by the two vibrant patches of blue in this painting. It reminded me of this pair of cobalt hued shoes I bought (a score at $7 from a shoe store in Downtown Crossing) but haven't yet worn. We're seeing cobalt a lot lately; I've worn it before, and now I'm inspired to give these heels a test drive. (Check out my Pinterest for more cobalt inspiration).

Sam Studelman

Sam Edelman is my all-time favourite shoe designer, mostly for flats.  I have been swooning over these studded heels, though.  I love anything studded, if you'll remember from here and here (hello Valentino!)

How do you feel about studded heels?

Twiggy

Wasn't the Twigster (do you think anyone called her that?) such a fashion inspiration? I would never dare cut my hair that short, but she has always looked so cool, and check out that long (and thick!) braid!

With the 70s revival, do you see yourself wearing those floppy hats?  Super cute!
