in honor of this post's title, i'm going to make this short and sweet. leopard is one of my favorite prints, it takes any outfit over the edge, into the wild side. it's sexy, fierce and full of this unexpectedness that i'm consistently drawn to. maybe because i don't consider myself any of those things. you guys know i'm all about sheer and two-toned or color-blocked pieces so this tank truly has it all it's one of my go-to grabs (found it on a buy one get one free rack, talk about score). the skirt's similar texture, its sheer and simplistic elements, compliment the top perfectly. and spring is all about that pop of color, coral being a mix between pink and tangerine orange, much more bold than blush. finally jewelry makes an appearance! recently i've been big on gold and there's just something about triangles, right? obsessed. and, of course, saving the best for last. the shoes. my michael's. enough said.
what's your favorite leopard piece you own? what leopard piece is on your wish list?
top-other ($30 she inside)
skirt ($14 forever 21)
heels-other ($30 white house black market)
earrings-other ($4 forever 21)
p.s. thanks again and again to my wonderful sister emily of emily magers photography. today's shoot would be nothing without her vision (and angle expertise) and willingness to hike in the heat. she is a superstar sister and my best friend.
p.s.s. would love your support of this look on lucky magazine's website. vote here

DeleteI actually own no leopard :( sad, right?
ReplyDeletehttp://lasaloperie.blogspot.com
super sad, like the saddest thing! i definitely recommend starting with a tank like the one i recommend above via she inside or, if you want to start small consider the $20 pair of pointed toe flats (complete with a studded heel) via target i just bought here:

thank you so much, it means the world to have you follow and comment. and my sister will love to hear the photography shout out. im over in southern california near los angeles, definitely spring time. hope all is well where you are, i look forward to becoming blogger friends xo
DeleteI love that skirt, I have been looking for one that colour :)
ReplyDeletex Angie
thank you angie! to tell you the truth i was super hesitant to purchase such a bold stand-out color. i usually stick to the neutrals. but getting into blogging, and my spring craving kicked in and im so glad it did. the cut is what i love most. there is a link to the exact skirt above xo
DeleteAlthough I am not a fan of leopard,I really like it just like that,compared with this beautiful coral skirt!
ReplyDeleteI love your blog,I am now following you too :)
Thanks so much for your sweet comment!

http://alltimeclas-chic.blogspot.gr/
thanks so much lily! it means so much to hear from you, im glad that even though you dont like leopard you can still appreciate this look. i think the color blocking on the tank helps and this print is actually a lot smaller and darker making it more subtle so that could be why you approve! keep in touch xo
DeleteAhhh finally I can leave a comment. I really love your pics! I love it when bloggers take more than just normal outfit pics. These pictures really make it into something much more interesting which I love!
ReplyDeleteyay! hi rebecca, thanks so much for your kind words. it means a lot to hear someone recognize what im trying to do here which is to display my creativity! the photography is all my amazing sister, she'll love the shout out xo
DeleteYou skirt is so pretty and perfect for spring! I'm absolutely loving coral right now.
