A Splash of Animal Print

See the beautiful Valentino pumps. See how I bought them on eBay and paid $425 less than I could have if I paid retail.

 

 

That's right. I picked up these classic, NEVER GOING OUT OF STYLE pumps that will last forever (if only I lasted that long) and because they are from last season, they are considered OLD and OUT. OLD means BARGAIN for us! There is still another pair at eBay, if you are so inclined.

 

They are pony hair with a dyed animal print. Shhhh. I am fearful that if I admit they are made from pony hair, someone might get upset and throw flour on my blog.

 

 

 

Wearing the Doncaster sweater I invested in a few months ago. I love the weight of this piece, simply fantastic!

 

 

Polka dot gloves. Because I have them. And last time I checked, polka dots went very well with animal print.

 

That string is a real distraction. The thing is, I didn't see it until the macro lens picked it up. That macro lens sees much better than I do.

 

 

Indeed, Lucy would sport this outfit and especially love these Valentino pumps! I bought this skirt from Talbots over three years ago and never wore it because I didn't have the right shoes. Problem solved now that I have hunted down these exotic animal print Valentino beauties.

 

 

 

Notice the doggy gate in the background. I didn't notice it until I was ready to upload this post. Just ignore it.

Washed out skin and FLAMING RED HAIR…

 

The road maps are doing their best to be seen and heard through the thick stockings. I am ignoring them completely.

 

 

When it comes to wearing animals prints, a splash is all you need to keep it elegant.

Have a beautiful Thursday!
