Check out this fabulous article by Vanity Fair featuring beautiful photos of the cast of Catching Fire (via). The movie was fantastic, and so we decided to recreate some of the fashion we saw in the movie. We rarely post twice in one week, but to be honest, we couldn't resist! So much beautiful inspiration from this movie. We sure think the costumer designer knew exactly what they were doing!

This dress below reminds us of the infamous "mockingjay" dress that Katniss wears in the movie (the picture above).

Love this simple look. Recreate it with items in the shop.

She wore lots of sweaters throughout the movie. Try these inspired looks below.

Sometimes we miss the old black and white photos.
