Try This Look

I think that runway looks are great ways to get inspiration. Try out this one from Burberry Prorsum Fall/Winter 2009. It includes three pieces you probably already have. A white men's style dress shirt, high heeled boots, and a scarf. The cropped dress pants may be a little harder to find, but try picking a pair up on the cheap either consignment or vintage and then having them altered to the length you like, or perhaps you even having an old pair you don't wear anymore. This could be just the inspiration to give them new life.
