If you are not familiar with the “Inspired by…” series, click here for an explanation. But short story even shorter, each month I choose a seasonal ad and try to recreate the models look with colors I already own. Dressing up and awkward posing included!   This months choice was requested by my favorite Italian blogger Carol in a page, who suggested I´d do this one because “I already had the hair” (original quote).
