Mel of Idee Geniale

We're big fans of Mel, from Idee Geniale, so when we saw this outfit was inspired by Market Publique, we were thrilled!

Here's how the chain reaction played out:

Mel was browsing Weardrobe when she came accross this picture:

It was Market Publique seller Lowbrow Jadey, who writes Lowbrow Style! Jade paired a light denim shirt with dark black denim and a red plaid poncho for a cozy winter look that is still super-stylish. (Also, check her out in this awesome vintage dress she got from Market Publique). She mentioned that she had had this poncho in her closet in a while, but hadn't figured out how to wear it until...

She saw Kate's outfit on our blog! Kate, who is one of our Market Publique photographers, has effortless style and always wears the most awesome rings. She has helped me a lot to get comfortable in front of the camera when doing my outfit photos, but she stepped in front of the lens this time to show us her awesome outfit:

Voilá, the initial inpiration: Kate's outfit, mising denim, shots of red and the plaid fringed poncho!

I love how each of these ladies wore their chambray button down with red, and how they made it their own: Kate with her super-dark denim and vintage poncho; Jade mixing blue and black denim and pairing the look with skinnies; And Mel, keeping the chambray and black denim combo but swapping the poncho for a cardigan in the same bright red hue.

Lovely chain reaction, don't you think? It really makes me happy when people can seek inspiration in other people's outfits and make it their own!
