This weekend I finally sat down to catch up on my Netflix pile. All month it had been taunting me, collecting dust by the TV, until finally the mail got piled up on top and I'd forgotten about it all together. Imagine my delighted suprise when half-way through paying bills I came across the new Hillary Swank movie, Amelia.

It's a biopic film that follows the pilot Amelia Earhart's rise to arguably the most famous woman pilot of all time. I sat down to watch waiting to scope out some serious 1930's fashion eye-candy, I do love a nice hat and stole. Unfortunately, Amelia was a bit of a tomboy, and her outfits were uninspired. (Although, a girl can't complain about anything that puts Richard Gere in a sharp tailored suit.)

However, not a day later I was browsing on Harper's Bazaar and gasp, I came across this shoot. Those gloves! Those boots! That scarf! I am in love. (I also need to get a pilot cap, preferably in worn brown leather.) OK, I know this photo is in black and white, but don't you just love the way that white skinny scarf just pops out of the picture? It really would not be the same without it. Just another example of how a basic scarf can totally rock an outfit.
