(Again, I wanted to have this on my blog, so I apologize for the cross-post.)

This is not the most creative interpretation to the challenge for day 2, but I had a bit of a crisis yesterday, so this is what resulted:

Turquoise, green, and black patterned surplice fit-and-flare dress (from last year's Seattle clothing swap.) It's a bit of a stretch, but the small circular pattern of the print does make me think a little bit of lily pads. The neckline's a little low so underneath I wore a kelly green knit shell that has a ripply neckline and a turquoise-colored glass beaded necklace - again, trying to evoke the tranquility and movement in the inspiration photo. My own "stems" are encased by my favorite cognac boots. The lily pads are a bit yellow in the photo from sunlight streaming overhead, so I cheated a bit by bringing this out in my trusty mustard handbag.
