of stars with red and blue


Today my outfit is based on Style Imitating Art Challenge.
That's when Jess from Animated Cardigan choses a work of art,
 to inspire an outfit.

Here's my version of the look.
To see how others were inspired,
 go to:
Style Imitating Art: untitled.


Today's art inspiration is:
Olympics-Star:1992
by artist Sol LeWitt 

I thought the lines in my skirt,
sort of mimicked the lines in the star.

My red skirt and my black boots were thrifted.


Now for some more red and blue fashion:

Anna Sui Spring RTW 2013
Can you see her star button?
 Can you see the red tie has a guitar on it?
How about the heart bracelet?

Those sunglasses, the jackets,
and the floral patterns are the best!

Anna Sui Spring RTW 2013
I adore the black lace detail on the back pockets,
the prints and the necklace!

I dig the clear clutch bag, and how it looks hand painted.
I also really like the hearts!



My art journal pages from
February 25, 2013


If you had told me five years ago that I was going to live in The Lonestar State, I would not have believed it. If you had told me at concerts that bands would sing: 
"The stars at night are big and bright"
 and have us, in the audience sing back,
"Deep in the heart of Texas"...
I would have been shocked.

Teenage me liked to look at the stars, and find the constellations:
The Big Dipper,The little dipper, and Cassiopeia. I thought I would like Astronomy class in college. No way!

It was too much math. I only passed it because my husband took it with me, and helped
.

Thank goodness for that. ;)


Now for the little stars in my life:

My nephew Speed Racer with his
 goldfish crackers.
Can you see the star shape on the bottom right photo?

without an adult helping him.
Right: My twin nieces are trying to vacuum cause I told them they had to clean up the mess they made.



Now for my 11th favorite band Augustana:
from their All the Stars and Boulevards album.

...."Seems like I'm never coming home
Seems like I'm always on my oh.. 
All the stars and boulevards
 ain't close enough for you"... 
All the Stars and Boulevards by Augustana
