Let's do something a little different today: Everyone loves music, right? And a lot of people use musicians as the inspiration for their outfits. My friends know that I am not a new/popular music kind of girl. I prefer Classic Rock and the oldies when I want to get my spirits up. I turn to bands like The Eagles, Beatles, James Taylor or Billy Joel and if I'm in the mood for "new" music, John Mayer (and more recently Manifesto - a British band that I was introduced to via a Harry Potter actor who is in the band.) To switch things up, I decided to create a look inspired by The Police!

The Police were one of the most popular groups in the 70s and 80s and their songs are still played on most radio stations. You would likely find at least one of them in a leather jacket or a blazer, and they loved their jeans! As for shoes, they were fans of boots and sneakers. A pretty easy look to recreate because it has a certain ease about it. (Don't worry, we won't go totally 80's with over-sized blazers as they did.)  I created a look with items from BooHoo.com!

Leather Jacket, White Tank Top, Skinny Jeans, Chelsea Boot, Pearl & Chain Necklace, and Round Frame Sunglasses

Today I'm featuring a pair of "Bertha" sunglasses from GlassesShop.com! They are a really fun red/burgundy color that gradates down. So to bring out the color I decided to wear some burgundy pieces.  This pair was also good at blocking out the sun, just like the first pair I featured on Friday. Both the dress and sweater have been in my closet for quite some time. This is the first appearance the sweater has made on the blog, but I had it long before that started. And this dress was one of my first Marc Jacobs buys (after my velvet polka dot blazer) on eBay in 2010.

Today I'm sharing the first of two posts featuring sunglasses from GlassesShop.com! This pair is called the "Fanny" and features pearls and a jaguar on the arm! I love that little touch of fun added to an otherwise classic pair of sunglasses. And, what would a sunglasses review be without talking about the sun? Sometimes even when I wear sunglasses I find myself squinting as I'm driving or walking in the sun. That wasn't the case with these, I could almost look directly at the sun without being bothered. That's the mark of a great pair!

This past weekend I drove up to Massachusetts to go to the drive-in with my friend Kat! We saw Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Hercules (with The Rock.) Sadly the car battery died so we couldn't really hear Hercules all that well, but it looked bad anyway, ha ha. I didn't hate TMNT like I thought I would, but it is still nowhere near as good as the ones from the 90s. It was such a great night, perfectly cool weather, but not too cold!

I don't wear this top nearly as much as I should. I guess it's because it's more girly than my usual style. So to toughen it up I paired it with these skinny jeans that are aptly called "love destroyed."  This post also sees the return of Arnold, my beloved purple purse! He's been neglected lately in favor of smaller bags, but I used it basically every day for 2 years straight, so it needed a break. Wouldn't you say?
