Every week I am planning on showcasing outfits inspired by some of my favourite bands and movies. Film and music have always inspired my thoughts and as a result of that they have often inspired my clothing choices. Film often gets the upper hand ( I can name a lot of films - mainly classic - off the top of my head that make me yearn for certain clothes) but music also influences the way I dress.
This week I am inspired by The Beatles.
Of course if I wanted to, I could actually be inspired differently by each of my favourite songs...wild rockin' hippie for Helter Skelter, Poppy bright colours for Lady Madonna, Pretty and somber for Yesterday, Romantic for Something, Joyful and preppy for I Just Saw a Face...
However this outfit feels like it spans the Beatles across all decades. It's Whimsical and Mod yet Dark with a hint of Pomp and Circumstance. Do you agree?

I have to know... who takes these pics for you?!
Particularly the ones in the office!
I just can't imagine setting up my camera on timer at the office to take pics of myself so I am really curious
Love the coat :)
Haha-- nicely done!
what a great jacket!
Your coat is awesome!
That tuxedo coat is really brilliant! And it looks amazing over the dress. Great inspiration!
Thank you for the comment on my blog. I wanted to see X-Men in the cinema over and over again but none of my friends wanted to join me :P Needless to say, I'm the only comic book fan in my circle, haha!
Gorgeous... love the coat :)
P.S. Awesome inspiration.
Thanks everyone - the coat is truly wonderful, I can't believe I managed to snag a Dolce and Gabbana coat in pristine condition for only $100! The magic of Ebay!
Michelle - I totally use self-timer if at work...I would feel too embarassed to ask a co-worker to take a pic of me. and then they would ask what it's for and I'd have to say my blog and I'd rather not.
My bf takes the pics at home and outside our place. he's getting better at it too!
your gorgeous
