roar


Skirt- Bettie Page; Blouse, Sweater, Belt & Bracelet- Thrifted; Shoes- Consigned; Nail Polish- Inferno by Wet & Wild
If I was stranded on a catwalk and could only bring one article of clothing it would be this leopard print skirt that I bought a couple of years ago in San Diego at the pin-up esque shop Bettie Page (somehow I don't think it would make the cut on a desert island!) It has been showcased in all its pencil skirt spotted glory numerous times on this blog (worn like this, this, this, this, this & this) but I never get tired of it.
  

I know it's currently trending but I was a fan of leopard print when the only other people sporting the bold animal pattern were cougars! (aka my older female role models).


Do you roar and rave about leopard print too?

  1. I roar and rave over leopard print for for sure! I love how you styled your skirt with orange and yellow I'll have to try that! Hope to hear from you soon!

  2. I love leopard too! I have a leopard skirt, but girl it's not as chill as yours! I love the print and the yellow accessories with it look SO GOOD! I didn't think about adding yellow to an animal print. I LIKE IT! I'm just adoring your hair! Definitely go to Home Depot! They had different color mums (yellow, orange, red, brown) and the prices were great.

  7. I do. not very much but sometimes definitely. most of my leopard print clothes are rather summery and would be cold for current weather. but your pencil skirt is totally fierce and I can see why you love it so much! and the pattern mixing is great too!

  8. This outfit is fabulous!! At first I was drawn to your top because I love the geometric black and white pattern, and then I saw your skirt and the yellow accents, I was floored! Absolutely fabulous from head-to-toe!!

  9. Oh yes! Leopard is the best animal print around :) It's a neutral and goes with everything. Love your skirt paired with your top and the yellow accents. So cute!

  10. First of all, I LOVE the new hair--so sassy and fun! And that skirt is fabulous, it looks great paired with the yellow accents. I haven't always been a fan of leopard print; it used to intimidate me. Now though, it's really grown on me and I'm beginning to love it!

  14. Meow! That skirt looks great on you. The only leopard print I have is a scarf. I like to pair it with red and camel.

One of my daily joys is reading the lovely comments you leave. It may take a day or two (or three, depending on how hectic life gets!) but I will stop by your slice of the blogosphere soon! xo Emily
