You may say we're dreamers, but we're not the only ones. This past Saturday, we were among the millions of John Lennon fans who wondered what the singer-songwriter and peace activist would have been like at age 70 had he not been shot thirty years ago right here in New York City. Always known for marching to the beat of his own drum, Lennon's rebelliousness translated into his manner of dress, which eschewed the fashion status quo of his day. Simple suits, button-downs, and a splash of pattern - always Sgt. Peppered' with flower-child accessories like his signature wire-rimmed glasses - defined the bearded and scraggly-haired icon's style  And so, John, while our guitars gently weep, we wish you the happiest of birthdays.  We love you, yeah, yeah, yeah! Check out the OC gift set, curated for the occasion.
