This is the place where my two loves- art & fashion will combine.
Not only will I merge clothing & artwork, but I'll also mix high fashion with bargain brands & art from the canon with lesser-known artifacts.
Feel free to e-mail me at sarahwatson dot art at gmail dot com with any suggestions, comments, or your own artwork for me to work with.

Torso was such a fun piece to recreate in an outfit. I loved working with the thin black likes & the fantastic colors. I don’t think the dress could have been anymore perfect & the black ring captures the focal point, the black circle, well. The square, yellow purse completes the whole look, in my opinion.

I am slightly obsessed with this outfit. It’s bright & just too much fun. I found the black, lace skirt first. It goes with the figure on the right’s top & the orange top reminds me of the shirt she’s wearing underneath. The orange purse goes with the figure on the left’s top. I love the different shades of orange together. The shoes are a perfect match for the fabric tablecloth & they’re my favorite find for the entire outfit. The headband reminds me of what all the figures are wearing & the chess piece charm necklace is practically mandatory.

This Mondarian dress by Llum is so cute. Sorry, ladies, it’s only made for little girls. It’s available from Lollie for $55. Go buy it for your daughter, niece, or any other little girl who isn’t afraid to stand out.

My main inspiration for this outfit was the figure’s coat. I love the bright color & it’s obviously the highlight of the painting. The next element I wanted to add was the beautiful teal that’s in the sky. I did that by adding the blue in both the purse & in the earrings. The tree earrings really bring the whole outfit together & they really drive the connection to the painting home.

This dress could not match Paul Klee’s piece any better. It’s just perfect. Not only are the colors wonderful, but I love the cut. The bracelet also goes really well with the dress & painting. I was especially interested in the yellow moon in the piece, so I added the yellow heels & round, crystal earrings. I love the yellow & purple together! They are complements afterall. The pink purse was the last piece I added. It’s square like the blocks in the painting & is simple enough to not take away from the rest of the look.

This outfit was probably the fastest one I’ve ever made. It really just fell together as soon as I found the dress. I stumbled upon it & instantly thought of Kline. I love the gray accessories & the jewelry couldn’t match better.

The jewelry is gold leaves to go with the foliage in the painting. My favorite part of this outfit is by far the wine colored heels. Clever, right?

When I made this outfit I was thinking about what I’d like to wear if I were visiting this lighthouse. I would want to wear a flowy dress like this one from Net-A-Porter. The blue of the dress is a tad different than the sky, but I think it works. The overall outfit definitely has a nautical theme with the braided detail in the shoes & the chain-like necklace. I love the red that I pulled out of the lighthouse for the necklace.

It even has a butterfly that’s hidden quite like the one in the painting. The brown shorts match the table the flowers are on & the green shoes are an obvious choice to go with the leaves & stems. There’s nothing more fun than wearing shorts & flats though. Let’s be honest. The accessories were so much fun to play with. I chose the ring & butterfly earrings to add a little flash & the purse to go with the giant peony in the front.
