New York Fashion Week SS 2016....Charlotte

Danish model Charlotte Lindvig, after A Show, NYC, September 2015.

Love Charlotte's post-show messy hair with the paint-splatter effect button down shirt. Has me imagining an artist from the 70's taking a break from the studio....Charlotte's solid white painted nails are pretty fun too! Reminds me of painting mine in liquid paper during boring classes. 
A DIY project for an old chambray shirt you have in the back of your wardrobe....I think a fluro paint splatter would look really cool.
