Elementary, My Dear Watson
Though I’ve probably seen most movies currently playing on the cable movie channels, I wouldn’t say I was a movie buff. I do, however, get extremely excited about a movie or two from time to time.
The last movie I really wanted to see, and saw, was Pirate Radio. I adore music, especially music from the 60s, and almost wish the concept of a pirated radio station playing all my favorite songs existed.
The next movie I really want to see is Sherlock Holmes. In grade school I read about 10 of the stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and sort of became obsessed with Holmes’ roundabout genius and nonchalance. That being said, I also have a slight crush on a certain ex-junkie made good— Robert Downey Jr. anyone?
As I gawked at the giant Sherlock Holmes movie billboard on my way to work, and almost knocked over a little old lady, I realized, not only do both Jude Law and RDJ looking extremely dapper, but the baroque era was a great fashion era for men. If I could wear a top hat, jacquard vest, and overcoat everyday without looking like I’m dressing for Halloween, I probably would.
Alas, my prayers were answered in the form of this jacquard blazer ‘Lacey Boyfriend Blazer’ with a corset tie back. Coming in navy or burgundy it could work in almost any situation, with a simple ivory racerback tank and you pick of figure-loving bottoms.
Sherlock Holmes is released December 25th, 2009 (USA).
