Vintage Fashion Mix - Vintage & Modern Mondrian
It's amazing how such simple lines and colors can cause such an arresting visual. After Piet Mondrian created his important color block works in the 1920s, Yves Saint Laurent took notice and brought art to the body with the creation of the Mondrian dress in 1965.

I do love it when art and fashion collide. Love those shoes too!

This color-block pattern is everywhere lately. In shoes, purses, dresses ... I bought this great retro dress from shopgoldyn.com and this type of patterned accessory would go great with it.

I love the mondrian look. I feel like a cheat because it is such an easy way to create a stunning look. No thinking required. By the way, thank you so much for the link to Goldyn. Great site!
