Inspiration comes from the darnedest places, doesn’t it?

Take, for example, the story of an IRA asassin.

Not really something you would expect to inspire wardrobe choices.

But I’m reading A Star Called Henry (the first book in Roddy Doyle‘s Last Roundup series) and I find myself wearing Irish-inspired tweed.

So how did the book inspire this scarf? Who knows. But it’s one of my favourites. And come to think of it, the book is quickly becoming one of my favourites too.

P.S. Since we’re talking about books — add the Anthology on Facebook!
