Ready for Winter....

Winter needs to hurry up and arrive. I have been patiently waiting. I LUV winter. It's the best time of year. It makes me feel warm and cozy. With winter, comes holidays. Winter is just great. I love it for fashion because you get a chnace to wear layers, such as coats, vests, hoodies, scarves, gloves, hats, and even ear muffs. I'm not a fan of coats. They make me feel constricted. However, I love how they look. I've posted a few coats to get you all leopard print ready for the winter season. How fab !



I love this first coat. From the belted waist to the corset-tie back. I love the way it flares out. I absolutely love the color. This coat is by Bebe. Get it from Amazon. I've included a link underneath the pics.

bebe Leopard Print Trench Coat



This next coat is a trench coat which are my absolute favorite. The designer is Appraisal. Too bad, so sad. It's sold out at http://www.shopmartins.com/ . I wanted to post it anyway because it is such a great coat and my wish is that they get more in stock. So I will keep checking on it for you guys !

The next three coats can all be found at http://www.asos.com/ in the Faux Fur Coats  category. All three of them are to die for and I was sooo excited to post them. I actually would love to have all three but if I had to pick one out of the three it would the second one shown because it was truly unique and if you don't know by now, I'm that kind of woman.

I feel that I have saved the BEST FOR LAST ! This next one is my favorite out of all the coats I've posted. I will admit, I'm a sucker for product names. The name of this coat is "You've been spotted". How cute is that? The colors in this coat are gorgeous. So luxe ! This is a retro vintage coat. It's only $69.99. What a steal. Get this from http://www.modcloth.com/.  OMG ! I'm gushing ! I'm so in love with this coat. You can tell it's my favorite. I made the image bigger, as you can see.

All Dressed Up and Nowhere to Go !

I have recently come upon some formal leopard print dresses that make me want to go to somebody's ball/ prom/gala/whatever. Has that ever happened to you? You ever found a dress that you wanted badly but you had no idea where you were gonna wear it to because you had nowhere to go. As a teen, there were plenty of formal events to attend. If it wasn't prom, it was some type of dance or ball. Where do people go as adults? It's time I find out...because there is no way I won't be purchasing a leopard print formal gown this season. The holidays are approaching. Surely I can find someone's party or charity function to attend. Tell me what you all think of these.



This first one is my favorite because it is very dramatic and eye-catching. I absoluely love the color and the style of dress. Definintely worth every penny you spend on it. You can find it at http://www.tjformal.com/.

I like the next dress because of the color. I think that this dress is unique because it has a lot going on. Very interesting dress. This Riva Designs dress can be found at http://www.formalapproach.com/

The next dress is designed by Sherri Hill and can be found on http://www.serendipityprom.com/ . I absolutely love the back view of this dress. It's a jaw-dropper for sure. It is very elegant and sexy at the same time.

This next dress is also by Sherri Hill. It's adorable and sexy. The leopard print makes it sexy but the frills and the color make it girlish and adorable. It seems like such a fun dress to wear. I can totally see myself in something like this. Doesn't the model in the picture seems like she's having fun?  Locate this dress at http://www.findmypromdress.com/.

I'm really starting to dig this Sherri Hill. The dresses she design are all so fun and so ME ! Check out this next dress. I love the red and brown combination and the site advises that there is a lace-up back to this dress. How cute? WHY MUST TEENS HAVE ALL THE FUN? Find it at http://www.promdressshop.com/

Okay seriously. Something has got to change. Is there a way I could go back in time? I need to go to my Senior Prom again. Where is a hot tub time machine when you need one? I REALLY need to go back to my prom and wear this dress. I am really sitting here pondering whether I am too old to wear this. If I was a celeb, then I could wear what I wanted. I mean, look at Mariah Carey. She's as girly as they come and she's in her 40's, I think. Why must we be very young to dress in a fun way? Do you all think I'm too old for this? Anyhoo, the dress can be found at http://www.frenchnovelty.com/ and the designer is Jovani.

JOVANI STRIKES AGAIN! I don't care how loud, colorful, and bright you all think this dress is. It's just the type of thing I would wear. You have got to understand that not just anybody can wear this dress. You have to be FEARLESS ! I love it ! Totally wild. The designer is, once again, Jovani. This dress can be found at http://www.onlineformals.com/

Designer Tony Bowls is stealing my heart. Brilliant ! This dress....NO WORDS....WOW. Get is at http://www.promdressshop.com/ .

Leopard Print Skin

I have about four tattoos and am dying to get more. I like to get things that truly respresent me. I consider tattoos to be a work of art. Lately, I've been thinking of getting a leopard print tattoo. When I went to visit my tattoo artist and told him my idea, he told me that it would not look right. Excuse me ! Hmph! I went online and found pictures of leopard print tattoos. My guess is, he probably just didn't know how to do one and was too embarassed to say. I do plan on marching right back into the shop and showing him a thing or two. Of course, then I will find someone who is skilled enough to complete the look I want. What do you guys think? Tell me which ones you like best.

The Tomboy in Me....

Ok, so yeah, I'm a complete girly girl. However my style is girly with a slight edge. I think this is because I was a tomboy as a kid, all because of having an older brother that insisted I swing on tree branches with him. I think that because of this, I will always love tennis shoes/sneakers. I have an addiction to nike shox, adidas, and pretty much any bright-colored sneaker. Well, it's just my luck that many designers are making tennis shoes in my favorite print.....LEOPARD...duh, what'd you think I was going to say. Once you view the sneakers below, you will probably want to go out and by yourself a pair, ASAP.



Check out these from Christian Louboutin. This photo is courtesy of http://www.myairshoes.com/

If you are a Converse type of girl, you should love these. This photo is also courtesy of http://www.myairshoes.com/

I MUST TYPE THIS PARAGRAPH IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE I AM IN LOVE WITH THE NEXT PAIR OF SHOES. THE DESIGNER IS NONE OTHER THAN CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN. THEY CAN BE FOUND AT http://www.bergdorfgoodman.com/ . Okay I will go back to lower case as not to blind you and also to give you the link to go and purchase these. Get them here!

Check out this next pair from Puma. I can totally see myself rocking these on one of my casual days. I love Puma anyways and to have them in leopard print would be awesome. I love the color, a white base with grey/black leopard print , especially with the splash of neon green on the shoes and the laces. I want to go out and buy this pair now! What do you guys think of this great find?

Picture courtsey of http://www.kicksonfire.com/. Love this site!

As you have seen so far, I have posted sneakers no matter what your style is. If you like a more classic print, I have posted the Converse sneaker and the Christian Louboutin. For more fun shoes, I have posted Pumas. This next shoe falls into the category of fun! When you feel more casual and playful, this is the look you are going for Throw these on with a pair of jeans or sweats to be casually cute. This next pair is from Reebok. I love these. Actually I love all the shoes I have posted, which is why I posted them...DUH. But really though, all of them match my style. It just depends on the mood I'm in on a particular day. These Reebok were found on http://www.hypebeast.com/. They are shown in two colors but I would probably get the first pair. Why? Well, weren't you listening. I already told you all that I love bright-colored tennis shoes. PAY ATTENTION WILL YA !!

Inspiration from Olivia Palermo

There has been talk about Olivia Palermo's leopard print belt. From the first picture, people say that she went overboard but I absolutely love it. Sure, in the second picture the belt looks good with her black dress but in my opinion, HOW BORING ! I don't think she went overboard at all. I fell in love with the look the moment I saw it! I do believe in playing it safe at times and yes it is VERY possible to go overboard with leopard print. However, not in this case. Screw anyone who thinks it was a bit much. It was eclectic perfection ! What do you all think?

Why don't we take inspiration from her? I've decided to look for some similar items so you can create the same look, of course from the first pic because the second one is BORING , well the cut out shoulders are kinda hott . LOL
