Style imitating Art: Venus

I thought I'd share the latest Style Imitating Art challenge I have taken part in.

Salazar chose this beautiful pastel poster, a space tourism poster from the Jet Propulsion Unit at NASA. 
I don't have huge amounts of pastels in my wardrobe though I was sure I had a lovely peach and white patterend silk camisole that would be perfect...

I think I must have culled it.

Also considered a lovely pink rose cardigan....

But I couldn't find it.

In the end, I went with this Dorothy Perkins peachy/pink spotty dress. I liked the spots echoing the numerous circles on the poster.

In addition, I added a pretty quartz crystal necklace that my fellow blogger, Gem gave me as our Blogger Snail Mail swap to echo the crystal dome.  Some nude heels from Aldo completed the look along with a Dorothy Perkins lacy white cardigan.

I added an image of one of the huge quantity of peachy-hued roses that are adorning my garden this week.
It may not be the best match ever but for my limited pastel-wardrobe,I think I did quite well!
Head over to Salazar's blog to see how everyone else interpreted this poster!

  9. I do love me some pastels and this look is gorgeous, you look lovely Kezzie! I love this poster too that you're taking inspiration from. The polka dots on the dress match it perfectly, and that necklace is stunning. I love those soft pastel shades for the spring and summer. - Tasha

  10. you did a great job...and you look adorable!!!! I really like that dress, it's so feminine and chic. I'm a big fan of pastels, but curiously, I don't have that many of them in my closet.

  11. You look very lovely in this dress :) I love pastels, but I don't own a whole lot of pastel clothing. I do like adding pastel hair dye to my hair though! Also that poster is super dreamy.
