Animal Print

My beautiful daughter Lexi, wearing a leopard print top and black jacket while sporting her, "Oh no you didn't!" look.

And she looks FIERCE doing it as a leopard diva.

I ADORE THIS GIRL!

But was the leopard print the first thing you noticed?  Probably not.  Why, you ask?  Because it's a subtle pattern, paired with black and seen EVERYWHERE.

That's right, my darlings!  ANIMAL PRINT, in my opinion, has become a NEUTRAL!

You don't believe me?!  Look closer at my shirt and vest.  Just blends in beautifully, doesn't it!

I'll never forget when animal print was slowly coming back in style.  I was in college and I picked out a beautiful, subtle leopard print dress.  I swear to you I felt like I was BORN TO WEAR IT!

Animal print has a way of bringing out your confident, daring side.  As long as you wear it well and avoid the jumpsuit a few blogs back!  If you buy the jumpsuit, "daring just got scaring"!  Think Brigitte Bardot, NOT Bjork!

To pull off animal print, especially in the beginning, it's best to use it as an accent.
So if you have a beautiful black dress or a beige suit, throw on some animal print jewelry or a scarf.
BETTER YET- GET SOME SHOES WITH AN ANIMAL ACCENT TO THEM.

Wearer Beware: If you go out and buy a pair of sparkly, black zebra slippers, I will pretend I don't know you.

Go for something like these instead.

And don't be afraid to start stepping it up to tops or leggings as you get more comfortable with your inner lioness!  Just be sure to choose one or the other!!  

TOO MUCH ANIMAL PRINT IS LIKE TOO MUCH WINE.  IT'S LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS AND JUST NOT LADY LIKE! 

No one needs to see that.                     

 JY IS WELKOM!
