leopard legs

Leggings, Blouse & Tank- Material Girl (The Bay); Shoes & Square Earrings- Spring; Purse, Spike Bracelets & Triangle Earrings- Aldo; Sunglasses- Zellers
Leopard print worn two posts in a row? Told you I was an addict! These photos were taken a few weeks ago (you can tell by the old hairstyle!) after participating in Place d'Orleans Vlogger Search contest.  During the live shop-off we were given 1.5 hours and $200 to shop the mall.  The challenge was to find trendy pieces for fall 2012 that demonstrated: shapes, patterns, textures & colours.

For the shapes category I found these funky geometric earrings at Aldo for $8 & this high-low (aka mullet) blouse at The Bay for $35.


For patterns I chose amazing leopard print leggings at The Bay for $28 and tortoiseshell sunglasses from Zellers for $10.

Textures included a pair of delicate spiked flats from Spring for $40; spike bracelets from Aldo for $12; a quilted pleather bag from Aldo for $35 and the studded collar on the blouse. 


For hot fall colours I gravitated towards a couple of my favourites- cobalt blue in the purse and plum in the blouse. 

From head-to-toe I'm trending for fall with a Tinfoil Tiaras flare!

What's your favourite fall trend?

  5. I love how detailed your whole outfit is. all those studs are totally fierce and I want those flats now even though I actually don't need any. and that collar makes me want to do a DIY to have something similar. great look, Emily!
