OOTD 2/29/2012 - Leapin' For Joy

First, Happy Leap Year!

Second, my OOTD was inspired by Em in Espana. (See her here)  I just wish I had that great orange necklace!

J Crew Stripe Snap Tee in Blaze - Size S
J Crew Herringbone Blazer in Raspberry - Size 4
J Crew Cafe Wool Trouser in Heather Caramel - Size 4
J Crew Wide Calf Hair Belt - Size S
J Crew Factory Twisted Pearl Hammock Necklace
J Crew Teuta Peep-Toe Pumps in Orange


And third, check out my new purse.  I first saw it in a polyvore set (thanks turquoise22 ) and immediately knew that I needed it.  I'm really not a "handbag" person...I mean, don't get me wrong, I like a nice purse but as far as switching them out to go with different outfits, etc...not so much.  I think it was God's way of saving me from myself...He knew that I already had enough trouble with my obsessive love for shoes and clothes.  He had mercy on me and didn't burden me with a passion for purses too.  :o)

I have been carrying the large Coach Hampton Signature CarryAll for years.  Needless to say, it's showing some wear...so I was due for a new purse but I just hadn't found anything that I liked as well as my beat up Coach bag.  Until I layed eyes on this Fossil bag....it's beautiful soft brown leather and gorgeous calf-hair.  My long-time readers know that I have a strong affinity for animal print.  and it's big...I can get all of my "stuff" in it and more.  What do you think?  Pretty?

    1. Yep, I'll definitely have to re-create this look again!

      I agree...I think the animal print adds class and polish to most any outfit.
