Can a leopard change its spots?

-
Leopard print has been around since (almost) the beginning of time.  It is timeless and never goes out of style.  It goes with everything and most people these days even consider it a neutral!  Given all of this, can you believe this is the first leopard print item I've ever bought??  It's not that I don't like leopard print, in fact I think it looks great on other people!  I just never thought it would suit me.  

When I saw this snow leopard print top last week, I loved it and I knew it was coming home with me!  Now that I have my first leopard print, I want more!  I'm now on the hunt for some fun leopard print accessories!  

So, it seems that a 41 year old leopard can change its sartorial spots!  Here are two ways I've worn my new top in the past week:


Outfit 1:
Top: Harris Scarfe
Denim Skirt: Noni B
Shoes: Converse
Sunglasses: Jag


Bag: Sportsgirl
Ring: Diva
Bracelet: Mimco
Earrings: Tattooed Zombie




Outfit 2:
Top: Harris Scarfe
Pink Denim: Millers
Necklace: Millers
Sunglasses: Dasoon


Bag: Rockmans
Ring: Equip
Bracelet: Lovisa

Shoes: Holster

I know it's been a while since Amber has appeared on the blog.  Since I was wearing leopard print, I knew I had to pose with my own little wild cat!  Isn't she beautiful?

    It is great that you have found a leopard print top as it will match easily with skirts and trousers of all colours. I really like your coloured pants and they suit you very much. I was happy to see your "queen of the jungle" has emerged from beneath the air con.Flossie xx

    So sweet seeing Amber joining you for pics! :) I really like leopard print but have few clothing items in the print, I find accessories easier to wear. I am trying to mix things up a little and add more to my wardrobe though, like you said it's a fun print to wear once you give it a go! You look lovely in your new top. I like both outfits but the second is my favourite :)

    Hope that you are having a good week so far! So relieved the heatwave is over! :)

      Thanks for your lovely comments, Mica! I'm happy to hear you liked the second outfit! My son said it was too bright and hurt his eyes! I told him to put his sunnies on!! ;) XXX

    Leopard print can be quite addictive once you've fallen for it ;-) And of course, a leopard can always change his spots, regardless of his age. I had to turn 50 before I was able to wear what I'm now wearing. Love the leopard top with your pink trousers and accessories. But I do love the fishy earrings of your first outfit too! Glad to see Amber, although I am not sure she was feeling very comfortable being outside ;-) xxx

      Thanks so much for your lovely comments, Ann! The fishy earrings are fabulous, aren't they? ;) You're right that Miss Amber was not amused with going outside for a photo! I don't think I'll be doing that again! I'll just have to take photos of her indoors that will be dark but at least I'll keep Amber as an ally! ;) XXX

Up, Up & Away!

Do you consider yourself to be adventurous?  What does it mean to you to be adventurous?  Has the meaning of adventurous changed for you as you've grown older?   The other day I was out shopping with the family and noticed a new play area for kids, with hot air balloons painted on the walls.  After a quick family game of table tennis in which I truly sucked, the images of hot air balloons got me thinking about adventures and what it means to be adventurous.   I've never been adventurous in the extreme activities kind of way, such as partaking in skydiving, bungee jumping or even hot air ballooning!  I've never been interested in the first two activities, but I would like to ride in a hot air balloon and float up, up and away into the sky! In my twenties, I was adventurous in terms of travel and exploring new places.  I moved to Japan for two years when I was twenty one and travelled all around Japan (and other parts of Asia) by myself.  I always tried ne

Colourful Crop Cardis & Midi Skirts

Our internet is in and out at the moment, so while it's in , I'm going to go for it! The outfits I'm sharing with you today are quite different on the surface, as the colour schemes are dramatically different!  The first one has lots of autumnal colours and a bit of a 1970s vibe and the second one features more summery colours with a slight nautical vibe!  When I wore these outfits recently, I never thought they were similar at all, until I was going through my blog photos and realised both outfits were made up of colourful tees, cropped cardis and midi skirts!  So in that realisation, this post was born! My favourite outfit is the first one, because I haven't worn those colours much before and I was happy pairing these items together for the first time!  I like the second outfit as well, but I do wear blue and red together quite often.  Actually, it might be a good outfit for Australia Day, which is coming up soon! Outfit 1: Top: H&M Crochet cardi: Mil

Burgundy & Beads!

Can you believe it is almost the end of February?  I am still getting used to it being 2019, and the second month is already almost over!  This is my last week to get everything sorted out before my postgraduate studies resume again next week.  I haven't even ordered my textbooks yet!  I really need to get organised!   In the outfit I'm sharing today, I'm wearing one of my fave maxi skirts that I've had for many, many years!  I've worn it with many different coloured tops over the years, but this was the first time wearing my new burgundy coloured top.  I love the burgundy and wine colours that are around at the moment.  They're so pretty! The outfit: Top: H & M Skirt: Tree of Life Sandals: Gino Ventori Necklace: Diva I've had these beads for so many years now, but I never tire of wearing them!  They add a bit of colour and cheer to every outfit.   Bag: Marikai This bag is a new purchase.  I had been on the lo
