Don’t Speak too Soon…

Yesterday I said that while I have leopard print sheets, I won’t wear leopard print clothing. And then this morning, while browsing the new arrivals to Shopbop’s spring sale, I fell in love with the thumbnail image of L.A.M.B’s Tassel Gown, and when I clicked through to the page with the full-size image: leopard print. Much more subtle that the Nanette Lepore, but undeniably leopard print (with other animal textures).

And I love it.

Ab.so.lu.te.ly.love.it.

Even on sale, $368 is about a third more than my price ceiling for a summer dress, and I would be dramatically overdressed if I wore it to my office (my existing requirement for a splurge dress purchase). But wow… how gorgeous…I wish I could borrow it for one fabulous day in which I would make up activities for the sole purpose of wearing it.

    oh, details, i guess technically it is snakeskin print, but it is very similar to leopard… i should broaden the conversation to animal print, however…
