As of today, we are just 7 short days away from spring! Instead of using the 2012 pastel trend to my advantage, I wanted to find an art piece which which communicated the vibrancy of spring in a different way.
I love this simple Picasso line drawing of a woman with long, flowy hair. Atop her head is a wreath, and I imagined that below the neck she was wearing something bohemian - which is inherently “spring”. To interpret this into an outfit, I chose a monochromatic scheme of a drop waist blouse and wide, drapey trousers.
To invoke a bohemian look, I would suggest taking your cues from style a la 1920s vs. 70s, hippy-chic. An empire waist will always say, “groovy, baby;” whereas a drop waist hints at something more avant garde.
