The Suspense is Killing Me!

The suspenders, rather...

Okay, that was a terrible pun. But I quite liked it.

I have been ruminating on the geek-chic of suspenders and it seems Freddie was inordinately fond of them as well, so here's our inspiration for today:

He definitely also had a cute propensity for pairing his cheeky suspenders with graphic tees. As a bonus I have included a tee by Mick Rock (I know, right!?! AAH) with a picture of Mick's cat, since I love Mick, Freddie loved Mick, and Freddie loved cats. Also: You will notice the mustache tee; who can resist a good mustache tee, given the muse?

PS After this weekend I'm heading off to my summer job for a few weeks, and I shan't have access to internet very often, so the posts here will be sporadic at best. I have got a queue of outfits ready, however, and whenever I get a chance I'll be doing more to keep them coming. xx 

Freddie Is Our Sunshine

Freddie was inordinately fond of yellow, it appears--and among his apparent favorite yellow items of clothing was this sweatshirt:

So because I also am inordinately fond of both yellow and being comfortable, here you are:

Items in this set:
Gypsy 05 LaLa Land Cutoff Sweatshirt in Yellow, $130
Juicy Couture Hoodie Yelly, 130 EUR
Old Navy Womens Mellow Yellow Perfect Crew-Neck Tees, $10
Oceanside Super Skinny Legging Jean Wrecked, $30
Light wash ankle skinny jeans, 28 GBP

Feeling Blue, and That's a Good Thing

How cute are they?

I would like to point out that Our Muse is totally wearing a Hawaiian print shirt under that snappy blue number. It's punchy but subtle and I looooove it. Miss Mary Austin, Freddie's lifelong best friend and former lover, looks incredible (and judging by her interviews for Freddie's 60th birthday films, she STILL looks incredible) and guess what? Her look is way easier to borrow. Big florals are back in major way this year--thanks, D&G.

I've done His & Hers below:

Items in this set:

Jada Floral Dress, $36
Distorted Floral Sheen Dress, $23
London - Slim fit Suit, The Byard, 660 GBP
American Eagle AE Men's Sunwashed Hawaiian Shirt Navy, $35

and I've done a feminized, much more casual version of Freddie's look here, which is more "inspired by" and a lot less literal:

Items in this set:
Daytrip Jeweled Tank Top, $28
Linen Blazer, $86
Sass & Bide New Nights Jean, $68
read my lipstick - wanted (strawberry red), 13 GBP
Fade To Black Nail Color, $16

Enjoy!

Live Aid 1985

Because let's be real--that was probably the best live rock performance ever. Ask the hundred thousand plus people present if you don't believe me.

Items in this set:
JAMES PERSE WOMEN RIBBED DAILY TANK In White, $45
Studded Faux Leather Jacket, $48
CROPPED LOW WAIST SKINNY JEANS, 220 GBP
DSQUARED2 - FOOTWEAR - Sneakers - Size:9 , 8 , 7 , 6 , 10 - Item..., $295
simple chain, 295 CAD

*EDIT : I'm aware the picture of him holding up the crown is not, in fact, from Live Aid. I just thought it was a cool addition to the set. It's from Queen's 1986 Wembley show on the Magic Tour.
