[The Look: Dress: F21, Shirt: J.Crew, Necklace: F21, Boots: Unisa]

I’ve already shared how much I love animal prints – but this outfit was really created out of a frustration with my current closet, and the same old same old weather. Starting with a simple sheath dress, try adding a button down shirt- either tied at the waist like I did, or open and loose for a more relaxed look. I went with a statement necklace and a classic pair of brown boots. You could also pair this look with heeled booties, and more jewelry for an off-duty weekend look.

Remember that your closet always holds more potential than you think it does! Happy weekend friends. xo

[Dolce Vita: I’ve been stalking this pair for two years]

Let’s just say I’ve had a complicated relationship with animal prints, one growing from absolute hate to absolute love. I’ve come to see what an amazing basic animal prints can be, especially paired with the rich hues from Fall/Winter collections, like burgundy, rich browns, and Pantone’s 2013 color of the year: emerald.

The irony is now I’m living in NJ and loving animal prints – does this make me a Jersey girl?
