I have a confession to make: I'm not usually a huge fan of leopard print. I do enjoy touches of it, but I haven't been able to bring myself to actually purchase a piece for my own. This all changed the day I saw this incredible robe thing in a vintage shop in New Orleans. I feel like the particularly tacky rendition of the leopard print, combined with the red leaf design that could easily be mistaken for flames, not to mention 100% nylon composition make this a piece I can wear again and again. I also suspect I will serve me well when I'm a crazy old lady living with my many many cats.

ooh it's tacky in a perfect way! you totally pull it off. love the matching gold on your insanely awesome shoes xx
I too recently came around to the leopard, but this here? This is Ah-mazing. Probably mostly because it also features Palm Beach style jungle leaves. I also covet your shoes, by the way. :)

I know what you mean about leopard... I still haven't gotten brave enough! I have to say though, that robe looks great on you, you really pull it off effortlessly :)
Ahhhh it's so tacky and gross and so amazing and fabulous. My brain can't handle that combo together all at once. Ahhh! I die. I love it.
haha! well you're pulling off crazy cat lady very well :) its almost like "who's afraid of virginia woolf" - so dramatic. i love it.

That leopard-print robe is the perfect about of crazy. And those shoes are incredible! Uh-may-zing.
Oh, I love this! It has an endearing audacity.

I don't have anything leopard print either! Makes me think that I should own at least something...But this robe looks so good on you! Love the liquid leggings!
You crack me up :D At least you'll be a fashionable old cat lady LOL!
simply fantastic and extravagant - we all need piece that like - comfy, eccentric and forever-lasting .... and i totally love the part of being this old lady with cats and dogs .... something extremely comfy to know that we can be a fabulous old lady someday, haha!!! have a wonderful Monday, darling, xx
haha, this post made me laugh. i'm not the biggest fan of leopard print either (or really any animal prints), but you did find a gem! i don't dislike when others wear animal print, it's just not something i do myself. perhaps it has something to do with my tragically pathetic sixth grade year, when i was obsessed with legally blonde, everything pink, and, of course, leopard print accessories.
this is a long comment! but i must say one more thing: your shoes!!!!!!!!! i can't get over them.
your commentary is cracking me up!
and your shoes are radical!!!!
A piece that will surely stand the test of time. Ah ha. I happen to love leopard with a passion. RAWR! And those shoes. Love the shoes.
I love how you look. I dont use too much leopard, but I do love it.
Great shoes.
I've never been a big leopard print fan either, but I'm warming to it now that I keep seeing it worn in more stylish (and not tacky) ways!
you look stunning! I am not a fan of animal print, but you can definitely pull it off.
xoxo
seriously...I don't think that this would look half as fabulous on anyone else...it was made for you!
That is a sweet jacket!
You seriously look awesome I love the leopard on you, nice heels

ahhhhh i wanna have your shoes!! is it possible to buy them online??
i love the jacket so much! so luxurious. and the shoes are amazing! the unexpected back is so cool.
I think your vintage robe is so so beautiful !!!
I never dared to wear leopard prints out even though I'm so in love with them.
But if I had this,I would wear it out everyday. Its true,the details are so gorgeous ! And those red leaves are stunning !!
Adore the leggings and did you trim your hair shorter ??
You look beautiful as always <3 <3
Great outfit (as always) and love the new haircut - that length is very flattering on you!
Great look!
