UNLIKELY INSPIRATION

A few months ago, I was watching an NBA game with the boys.
Okay, let's get real, I was most likely reading Southern Living while they were watching the game.

While my boys were discussing the team fouls and rebounds, 
I couldn't help but focus on the sports announcer's outfit.
I did a double take and then asked to my husband to pause the TV so I could snap a picture. 
Now I'm no sports fanatic, but I do have two boys who are obsessed 
with basketball, baseball and football.  
So I see my fair share of sporting events on TV. 
However, it seems as though I have been living under a rock.   
Apparently the sports announcer, Craig Sager, is quite famous for his outlandish outfits.

I was intrigued. 
I did a little digging and came up with a few more Craig Sager ensembles. 
Since fashion isn't necessarily my thing, my thoughts immediately turned to interior design.

I used a few of my favorite Craig Sager outfits as inspiration 
for a little fabric/wallcovering pattern mixing.

Humor me, if you will........
(Oh, and if you love any of the fabrics/wallcoverings, I have included links to the sources below).

While searching for my favorite Craig Sager suits, 
I discovered he is currently battling acute myeloid leukemia.  
My prayers go out to him and his family. 
I sure hope his is back in action and sporting some fabulous fashion very soon.

  3. I had such a big smile on my face reading this post. This guy has got to have serious charisma to dress like that! How about one on your husband's fashions and matching interiors for Father's Day?
