{Outfit Inspiration} Hot Pink & Leopard

Thank you so much for your comments on our new Dining Room colors! I know they are bold, and certainly not everyone's cup-of-tea, but they make us happy. And isn't that what's most important when designing your home...creating a space that reflects you, and makes you feel comfortable and happy? As cliche as it sounds, I want our home to be a haven for us.

Today's {Outfit Inspiration} takes a break from pattern mixing, but is no less bold. Home and closet...I just can't help myself! I'm drawn to vibrant colors and patterns!

I have a small waist, but fuller hips and bootay, so virtually all my skirts and dresses are an A-line silhouette. The rare exception is when I find a pencil skirt with enough stretch to fit curves, and is thick enough to not pull and pucker. (These are my favorites.)

Someone get that girl some self-tanner! And a comb.

The pink top is so vibrant, the skirt actually becomes a neutral in this outfit. That's one of my favorite things about leopard...it goes with virtually every color. (See my take with with kelly green here.)

I piled on a few necklaces to get a chunkier look. The leather wrap bracelet is from my sweet friend, Courtney.

What's your favorite color to pair with leopard? Have you let your legs out for the Summer yet?
