Tiger's Lace

alt="h&m animal print jacket"

forever21 black skirt

tiger jacket




Jacket: H&M  (Wouldn't you <3 to have this version?)
Silk Camisole: Express  (Similar Here)
Skirt: Forever 21 Try Love 21 Section in Stores (Similar Here)
Clutch: Coach  (Similar Here)
Rings: Forever 21
Earrings: Amrita Singh  (Get it Here)
Shoes:  BCBGeneration  (Get it Here)
Sunnies: Guess
I can only imagine what would happen if a hungry tiger on the prowl caught a piece of lace?  Its ferociousness would rip apart the delicacy instantly.  Likewise, when I walk into H&M, I look beyond the advertised billboard $9.95 item, the very items that lure you into the store.  Like the hungry tiger, I am on the prowl for something good, looking between the racks and signs, getting ready to pounce on a tantalizing piece.  I am hunting for something that may have a 3, 4, or in this case a 6 in front of the $9.95.  In a few short weeks, this tigress will be revealing her hunted treasures that you'd kill to have....

  8. What a jacket! It's interesting how it has mixed patterns within the jacket, almost giving you the right-of-way to mix even more!
    Definitely a statement piece!

  9. I've been wondering when we'd get to see this gorgeous jacket again. There is something very Balmain about it so I suspect you'll go back to it again and again. You've done a great job mixing patterns and textures, Bessie! This is one of my favorites to date.

  51. I totally don't have the guts to wear that jacket but it looks great on you! Sadly, I even debate before wearing my white lace shirt.

    I wasn't saying you should get rid of clothes, I'm just very impressed with your storage capacity. :) I'm an interiors person so I can't help it. Also, sometimes I wish I had more storage.

  88. WOWeee! Tiger & crochet are such a great pairing and you look amazing! That jacket is beyond words! You wear it well my dear! I've loved these slingbacks on you for a while; they have a great shape and style!
    I just went to H&M last week and spent a small fortune on the kids so I'm trying to stay away this week but it's SOO hard!! Is it Friday yet? (well, I have to fess up that I did buy this great "leather" sleeve jacket, inspired by Helmut Lang I think, that I ended up wearing that evening as it got really chilly and we were outside watching a movie "on the lawn"...
    Thanks for liking my DIY.... Idea is pretty good but hope I can use these "gloves" in some way! Actually got me lusting for a pair of leather fingerless gloves...
    The burgundy pants in the previous post are actually pants not jeans! They have a bit of a muted sheen to them (kinda like silk) and they fit great so there was no hesitation there! Go for it if you're thinking of getting these since they are so different then the waxed jeans from Zara!
    I know what you mean about the dark lipstick! What brand did you end up getting? I tried on one I liked from Dior but knew that I had this one from Revlon, which, by the way, I had to hunt down for a few weeks last fall!!
    Hope you have a wonderful day my dear friend!
