I think you 2 look FAB! i am just old enough to remember that era, but was too young to have gone to the concert! LOL but Sting / The Police have got to be one of my favorites from that era, and Hall & Oates of course!! is that the beatles in the picture on the wall? great photo!!! excellent review for the pattern, awesome results and i can see him being Sting! looks like you all have some super fun!!

This is totally awesome! I love how you solved problems, and your "frankenstening" turned out great! What a fun blast from the past. And thanks for the video link, too. You both look great! Brilliant, all around!

What a fab jacket! Your Sting looks great in it and I'm sure the other Sting would be proud to call it his own!

Like, totally rad jacket. The dress you made is bitchin', too. you are one bodacious babe. and hubby is one righteous dude. I want to crash your parties- they look like totally wicked. I cannot believe you were a head-banger! Gotta bolt! Ronda- an 80's babe.

You guys always look like you're having such a good time at your party! This costume is GREAT! Although I personally didn't attend Synchronisity, I'm a big fan of Sting and the Police and am the right age. (HS class of '84 here) Great job.
