Inspired By: Books Turned Movies

Who knew so many movies based on books were coming out in the next few weeks? Although it's not below, another one I most definitely want to see if The Martian. You can bet I'll be in a seat on opening weekend. Who else saw The Scorch Trials and wants to see The Martian?

The Scorch Trials

{Click for item info}

Written by James Dashner; Thomas was sure that escape from the Maze would mean freedom for him and the Gladers. But WICKED isn’t done yet. Phase Two has just begun. The Scorch. The Gladers have two weeks to cross through the Scorch—the most burned-out section of the world. And WICKED has made sure to adjust the variables and stack the odds against them. 

Although the plot of the movie differed from the book, the general idea of crossing the Scorch and finding people was still the same. Dress cool but in layers to protect you from the elements: a black trapeze dress, sunglasses, gray knee-high socks, lace-up ankle boots. Or a pink cardigan, a striped tank top, green cargo pants, and brown boots. (Release Date: September 18)

Black Mass

Written by Dick Lehr and Gerard O'Neill;  In the mid-1970's, John Connoly was a major figure in the FBI's Boston office and James "Whitey" Bulger had become godfather of the Irish Mob. A dirty deal between them would spiral out of control, leading to murders, drug dealing, racketeering indictments, and, ultimately, the biggest informant scandal in the history of the FBI.

For a casual FBI look, wear a green blazer, a white blouse, burgundy corduroy pants, and blue flats. Or put on a Whitey-inspired outfit: a black jacket, a graphic tee, jeans, and black ankle boots. (Release Date: September 18)

Frankenstein

Written by Mary Shelley, Frankenstein is about a committed student of science who is obsessed with discovering the source of life. He inevitably figures out to create life and thus creates a monster. 

I created an outfit based on Elizabeth, Frankenstein's love: wear a lace-y blue dress, nude jacket, Victorian-inspired rings, and brown wedges. Or go for a classic Frankenstein look in a black blazer, a layered sweater, black pants, and shiny black oxfords. (Release Date: October 2)

The Jungle Book

Written by Rudyard Kipling; Mowgli is an orphan baby raised by the wolves, taught by Baloo the Bear, trained by Bagheera the Panther and Kaa the Python. He knows the ways of the jungle and speaks the language of the wild.

Go wild in a gray tiger tank, distressed jeans, leopard print sneakers, and a metallic floral headband. Or feel free in a gray trapeze dress, green mirrored sunglasses, an elephant necklace, a bear ring, and leopard print flats. (Release Date: October 9)
