I wanted to echo the lightness of her clothes in this painting, so I chose to wear white, light blue and light green. She has a strong colored background, which I'm representing with my burgundy hair, and a brightly colored necklace, which I'm representing with my toes, even though they're covered.
These jeans are a recent Goodwill acquisition that I decided to try bleaching. They didn't turn out fabulous (the stitching is dark, and the bleaching showed up a couple of stains, and they bleached to a very pale yellow-green), so probably won't be staying in my wardrobe all that long. But I thought I'd give them a whirl today, since I have very little white to try to emulate the dress, but wanted to do something with light spring colors.
Does this work okay, and how can I improve it?
#1 - light blue, light green and white, with light blue shoes
#2 - same, but with silver shoes
#3 - the toes
Thanks for a terrific challenge Angie! I had so much fun with it! Even more fun than planning out my own outfits has been seeing everyone's versions!
