Fashion & Art: Magritte Edition

“Life imitates art, more than art imitates life.” (Thanks, Oscar Wilde.) But as much as I love when art and fashion intersect, there are just some things that don’t translate.

Nice to explore a more subtle color palette; I’m especially fond of aqua in combination with its split complements. I [...]
