Inspired By: Outlander

Who else is obsessed with this show? Outlander is based on a bestselling series by Diana Gabaldon; it's about Claire Beauchamp Randall, who, while on a trip to Scotland with her husband in 1945, is transported back in time to 1743. The whole show is gorgeous to look at: the amazing backdrops, the costumes, and of course Jamie Fraser. 

Five episodes have already aired, but it will be easy to catch up in no time.

Claire
Outlander -- Claire
Claire (Caitriona Balfe) is a World War II nurse, who has been apart from her husband, Frank, for several years due to the war. After the war ends, the two of them take a trip together to Scotland, but while there Claire touches these stones and gets stuck in 1943 in the Scottish Highlands. She's a feisty woman who's not afraid to speak her mind, even if it might get her into danger. 

For a modern look, wear a white collared dress, a plaid scarf, heart earrings, a gold watch, and black heels. Or go for an 18th century-inspired attire: a long brown cardigan, a gray plaid dress, and black buckle booties. 

Jamie
Outlander -- Jamie
Jamie Fraser (Sam Heughan) is a Scottish warrior. For a fighter, Jamie surprisingly is kind and thoughtful. He immediately takes a liking to Claire for putting his arm back in its socket and helping him heal his various wounds. 

You can't be a Highland warrior without wearing some plaid: either go for a white blouse, green plaid pants, leather bracelets, and black flats; or wear an olive jacket, blue plaid top, distressed jeans, and brown knee high boots. 

Randall / Frank
Outlander -- Randall / Frank
Jonathan "Black Jack" Randall (Tobias Menzies) is a British army officer and Frank's ancestor. He's sadist and horrible person, and Jamie hates him for something that happened in the past. Dress like Randall by wearing British colors: a red blazer, a blue button up, white jeans, and brown booties. 

Frank Randall (also Tobias Menzies) is an Oxford history professor with an interest in his own genealogy. During the war, he worked for MI-6 as a spy. He's a kind and soft-spoken man, which is the complete opposite of his ancestor. Go for a professorial look: a black hat, an olive scalloped blazer, a pale beige sweater, black trousers, and black booties.

  5. I very much want to watch Outlander. I've had it on my to-read list for over a year but still haven't read it. I'm super excited to watch the series and it sounds like it's something my bf wants to watch too! Do you have links for some of the clothes you added to the collages above? I really like some of the pieces and want to see where they are from!
