Spotted Coat

January 2nd, 2013

Free People Coat, Celine Sunglasses, T by Alexander Wang Top, J.Crew Skirt, Louboutin Booties, Alexandra DeClaris Clutch

We went to a wedding on New Year’s Eve and I wore a simple long-sleeved dress that I’ve had for a while (seen here). But since it was black, and approximately 98% of the attending women wore the same color, I wanted something to punch it up a bit. I bought this leopard faux fur coat for the occasion and it worked out perfectly. It was warm enough for a chilly evening and the leather paneling and swingy shape make it playful enough to wear during the day.

Usually love your style- but don’t know if leopard is the way to go for a wedding occasion. However, the skirt is great!

I absolutely adore your blog, it’s one of my all time favorites, but I miss the days when you’d throw in some inexpensive items in your outfit posts. I love this outfit for inspiration, but ultimately I know how far away from my lifestyle it is. Bring back the cheapies!!!

I love this so much! I’m currently obsessed with faux-fur and leopard print, so I was head-over-heels for the coat!
