Fall Wish-list Item # 3: Something leopard

Hope everyone had a great holiday break. I didn’t step foot in the mall nor do any shopping online this year. My sister told me I wasn’t missing out on any great deals. Today, back to work I go. At least, things are quiet at work.





As you can see, I am still catching up on my “wish-list” series. Item # 3 on my wish-list was something leopard. I found this leopard blouse at Old Navy a while back and have been wearing it non-stop. The fit is slimmer than most of their blouses. A year ago, I'd steer clear of leopard print. It is slowly but surely growing on me. Animal print is sexy when subtle. Small dose of animal print makes a bold statement. However, it’ll make people look tacky when overdone. This blouse can be easily paired with a lot of solid color bottoms that I have in my closet. This particular blouse is no longer available online but leopard is everywhere these days. I am sure you would not have any problems finding one.



What I am wearing:
Blouse: Old Navy - size XS regular (buy similar)
Skirt: Ann Taylor Ponte Straight Mini Skirt - size 00P
Shoes: Ann Taylor Perfect Leather Pump
Necklace: J.Crew (buy longer version)



Obviously, these photos were not taken recently. We didn’t get any snow for Christmas this year but it’s freezing cold outside. For those of you who are still taking break from work, enjoy your time off.


Readers, any big plans for NYE?

Love the blouse, two years ago I wouldn't come within a 500-yard radius of leopard items, now I love them. I tried to shop the after-christmas sale but couldn't find anything...you were right to stay home!

Good job for staying on this year : ) I love leopard on you, Sydney! I can't believe that blouse is from Old Navy.

Happy holidays!

You look great! I have been saying this a lot...but I cannot believe that is from Old Navy...and it fits! I have only been there once or twice this year...might have to make a point to visit sometime soon! :)

No plans for NYE, yet! :) I do know that I am staying away from the Strip! Too crazy down there!

@Ping I don't think it's available in store anymore. If I happen to see one, I'll pick it up for you.
