The other day, my husband and I saw the most amazing mural as we were driving, and we decided to stop and take a closer look. Luckily, some of the artists that painted the mural were there, and we got to meet them. The “F-team”, as they call themselves, is made of five local artists that are collaborating to make this jaw-dropping mural. There are many different parts to it, and I hope to photograph all of them as they are finished.
Now to the fashion. My love for the color cobalt blue just keeps growing, and I recently purchased a pair of cobalt skinny jeans. I wore them with my cobalt blue heels, and a grey oversized knit jumper. Is it okay to wear the same color jeans and shoes? Well, if they are cobalt blue then yes! I was also looking for a great small black bag for a while, and I found this one at Dao Chloe Dao. It has nice gold hardware, and I like the studs at the base. And I can’t forget to mention my sunglasses. I have a thing for mirrored aviators now, and this pair with a blue tint complimented the wall perfectly. What do you think of the look?
Three members of the “F team”.
On the lift, painting. You can get an idea of the size of this wall. If you live in Houston, make sure you check out this mural (corner of Main St. and Rosedale).
Knit: Zara (old collection)/ Jeans: Zara (also similar here)/ Shoes: Boutique 9/ Sunglasses: Gap (old collection, similar here)/ Bag: purchased at Dao Chloe Dao (similar here)/ Cuff: Hermes
I hope you like the look! Do you love the color cobalt as much as I do?
