Let go of my COATTAIL.....

I've decided that it was time to complete another post on leopard print coats. The first was named "Ready for Winter". Check it out if you haven't because I still love those also. I have seen a lot of comments on twitter and being that the cold weather has come upon us, it's only fitting that I post again. I myself have decided that I am missing a a leopard print coat in my closet. I can't seem to pick the one I want to rock! Is it bad to get three of them? I'm sure it's a bit ridiculous but hey...I'm obsessed. I believe that a leopard print coat is a bold statement. You are telling the world to look at you and while they are looking, you are telling them that you could care less what they think ! You are glamarous and you know it ! This is not for the faint at heart. Be ready to grab all sorts of attention. Face the world....in a leopard print coat. And when the men pounce and follow you like a lost puppy, tell them to LET GO OF YOUR COATTAIL ! Here are a few more found. Tell me what you think.

WEDGE my foot up your....

Hey ! I know the title of this post is crazy but it was the only way I could put wedge into a blog post ! I’m serious. I think it’s clever. I am doing this post because I am not rich. No seriously, this is the real reason. The problem is, I’ve fallen in love with a very expensive pair of leopard print wedge boots. Until I meet a rich husband, I have to come up with alternatives. I’m sure you guys understand and may feel the same. The first picture I will post will be of the leopard print shoes I WISH I could have. The pictures that follow are more affordable alternatives. I’d very much like to know what you think. Give your opinion on the best leopard print wedges. They don’t have to be the one most similar to the one I love, but they have to be FIERCE !


Here they are ! The Giuseppe Zanotti Sculpted Wedge Bootie. No words needed. Just oohs and aahs will suffice.




Here are some leopard print wedges I have found that could possibly take my mind off of these.

My Lucky Beret !

Does anyone remember the Saved by the Bell episode with Screech, his girlfriend Violet, and a lucky beret? Random I know but I used to love that show. I’ve loved berets since then. I think they are so chic and the epitome of what I like to call “sophisticated fun”.  If you all care to read on the history of the beret, visit this link : http://www.ssasychic.com/fashion/winter-hat-trend-berets/
The article tells that the beret has long been associated with the French. It was the official hat of France until the Nazi occupation of France in World War II when it was banned because it was associated with French Nationalism. I’m sure you also are aware of berets being a component of military uniforms across the world. Also, berets are associated with artists and poets.  In the past few years, celebrities have begun wearing them and in 2008, they appeared in Fall fashion shows.  This is why they have become more mainstream.


The article goes on to tell exactly how to wear a beret. Yes, it can be worn wrong and you can look like a complete idiot. The article tells us to frame your face by leaving some of your hair down and placing it and inch or so past your hairline. Another tip was to leave it slouchy and loose, not pulling it tightly over your head. Lastly, if you are new to wearing them, try a knit one first because they are not as stiff and more likely to lay the way you expect.
I am dying to try berets this season. What better way to do it than by wearing a leopard print one? Oh yes, I’m on it! Check out the ones I’ve found. Tell me what you think.

WARNING: These will get you noticed....

I love leopard print. That's highly obvious. My second love are shoes. I have to wear a shoe that stands out. It's who I am ! If there is not something unique about the shoe, I don't buy it or even entertain the idea of wearing it. If a shoe is leopard print, it will already stand out. However, I like to go a little further. Here are a few that you should not wear UNLESS you intend to get noticed. If you do not like attention.....don't even THINK about purchasing a pair of shoes. On the other hand, if you LUV attention, carry on in high style. Hope you are the latter. If so, this post is for you !!!
