For Mother’s Day this year, I went to VA to spend time with my mom. For dinner, we chose Cooper’s Hawk Winery & Restaurant. The meal was fantastic, I had a great time with my family, and I loved the leopard print dress I wore! I don’t have much animal print in my closet, but the look of this dress makes me want to add more!

Get The Leopard Print Dress Looks!

H&M Leopard Dress – My last style board featured a cardigan from H&M and now I’m featuring a dress from there as well! I absolutely love the length of this dress! It hits just below the calf and I’m also a fan of the smocked bodice. It comes with detachable straps, but I like the strapless “tube top” look. The fit of the dress is just perfect for me, I really like how it flairs out just a bit. I don’t normally wear loose-fitting dresses, but this is one of my new favorites. H&M so rarely disappoints!

Aritzia Georgia Cardigan – This cardigan is the first piece I’ve purchased from Aritzia. Typically I’m J. Crew all day for my sweaters and cardigans, but this red v-neck number was so rich & vibrant, it really caught my eye. The red (the shade is called Miracle Red) is so rich & vibrant and I think it pops so well against the leopard dress.

Aldo Cerquedaflex Oxford – I purchased these cognac oxford loafers to take on my France trip last year (check my Versailles post, you’ll see me wearing them), and I’ve been wearing them ever since! These shoes are comfortable, sturdy, and durable. I did a TON of walking in France and these babies don’t have a scratch or scuff on them. I highly recommend these Aldo loafers as a neutral staple for your shoe collection.

Bag Break!

Stella McCartney Braided Shoulder Bag – Are you familiar with the Apple TV original series Surface? If not, here is a YouTube trailer of the series for you…

Sophie has my DREAM wardrobe. Check out Surface on Apple TV!

The show is good but the wardrobe of the main character Sophie, (played by the STUNNING Gugu Mbathah-Raw) is incredible and is truly my dream wardrobe! If money were no object, I’d own EVERY SINGLE PIECE she wears in the show! In one scene she carries a braided shoulder bag by Stella McCartney. As soon as I saw the episode, I knew THAT was the bag I wanted to carry for my France trip (as my black bag anyway). I had to settle for the small version as the larger version Sophie carries in the show was sold out everywhere. The shoulder bag is a little small but I love the look so much, I make it work! I purchased my bag from Bloomingdales but I’m linking to a resale site as the bag is no longer in production. If you can snag it, I suggest you do, it’s vegan leather and so stylish!

Thanks!

I know some folks have mixed feelings about animal print but I think with the right styling, it’s always a good idea!

Thanks for reading all about this leopard print dress and hopefully you’ll give animal print a try in your closet. Please leave a comment and let me know if you’d like to see more style boards!
