Time for another Bloggers do it Better challenge! I love these challenges so much. I'm not sure I'd ever have paired these items together any other day. I love this leopard print dress. I've had it for years and I wear it pretty frequently. The biggest problem with it is that it's crazy boobalicious. Really. I look like Dolly Parton in this dress. Okay, so maybe not quite, but you get the picture. Despite this fact, I still wear it all the freaking time.
(I'm definitely laughing at myself in these photos)
I went through a giant leopard print phase about 4 years ago. I had bucket loads of leopard print. I've since discarded most of it, but this dress has stuck around. It's actually one of the only 3 animal print pieces I own. (The other two are leopard, also.) The biggest challenge for me wearing this dress today is that I still had to go to jury duty. I'm not sure the Dolly Parton/Pamela Anderson look is appropriate for a court room. So I got creative with a cami underneath, and a cardigan on top. I really love this look a lot. I'm definitely going to be pulling this dress out more often with cute little cardigans for fall.

I hope everyone has a wonderful day!
Love the dress! The print is fabulous. I went through a phase and got rid of most of my leopard print, but now it is making its way back in my closet. Great look.
ReplyDeleteI wish I could day that I had a huge leopard phase, but I've only recently been into animal prints the past few seasons... and love it! Your skirt is lovely here, especially with the colour blocking effect (tights/cardigan). -xo
ReplyDeleteand you pulled it off well dear! LOVE how you combined your color blocking with the print and the belt: nice touch! Work it girl!
ReplyDeleteThe cardigan and skinny belt are a nice touch! and the tights - i really need to challenge myself with more colorful tights! It looks great on you!
ReplyDeletetoo cute outfit. I love your style.

Great outfit! I especially like the purple cardigan. Of course the leopard print is excellent too. I like the way you styled the whole look. Perfect for court (and not in a My Cousin Vinny sort of way).
ReplyDeleteThat necklace is so ridiculous. You look great!

ReplyDeleteMeagan - Don't you just love the eagle necklace? I about drooled when I saw it at Savers.
Jean - Now I'll have to put together a My Cousin Vinny outfit. Where are my leather pants?
