When I included this leopard dress in my October budget post, I recounted my frustrations with needing to exchange it for a different size, but once everything was finally sorted, I wanted to take this dress out into the world as soon as possible.
Did I need another leopard dress in my closet? Of course not! However I just loved the print and the pockets, and the classic cut. (I'm thinking I might need to move the belt loops a bit lower before I next wear it.) The dress is a heavier fabric so it worked out for the late fall afternoon with just a cardigan. I went to lunch in New Haven with my sister and we snapped these photos afterwords, then immediately retreated home before the sun could set and make us regret leaving the house with bare legs!

I love me a good animal print piece and this dress is perfect! Also loving that pretty bag!
ReplyDeleteThis is the cutest dress! Love a fierce leopard print.
ReplyDeleteI think we can all easily make the argument that there is nothing else we need in our closets. But the fact is, in this year, when some much else has been taken away from us, it's okay to indulge our wants, too. And I can absolutely see what you wanted this dress, it's the perfect classic cut and fits you like a dream! It was a worthy addition to your closet :)

As a fan of leopard I'll agree with you on this being a good purchase : )
ReplyDeleteIt has been years since I saw anything branded Persaman as your bag, I have a vintage shirt from that brand.
