She's so Country: Plaid and Leopard frolic in the Old West
Plaid + Leopard + Bolo = Citizen Badass
Well don't say I didn't warn you. I told you that this season, PLAID was going to replace my polka dots. And you know I like to mix the polka dot with leopard. After delighting in the plaid/animal mixes of Sacramento and Desiree, I decided to do a little mixin' myself, western style.Plaid, meet Leopard. I think you two will like each other.
I'm liking my vintage JFK bolo tie picked up for a (cowboy) song at our downtown Goodwill boutique. I think I forked out a five spot for it. AND worth every penny. Or in this case, a 50 cent piece.
I am LOVING my new brown ankle boots freshly bought from Target! Made of genuine, uh, man made materials (my rational is that they will be my rain boots) these slickery booties have great character and came with an easy-to-take-home price tag of $30 buck-a-roos. You'll be seeing a lot of these kickers in the coming season.
