An Animalistic Thrifty Thursday

The Call of the Wild…a cry I’ve heard many a time but never once having to do with my wardrobe.

Just like the nautical style of last Thursday, this week’s theme had me out of my comfort zone & a wee bit stumped. Not being an animal print lover (or even liker) in the least I knew a thrifting trip would just be waste of time & money…luckily a quick peek in the back of my wardrobe revealed a pair of subtle leopard print PJ leggings that I could build from…whew!

Hat with Leopard-Print Band (gift) €0  –  Scloop (handmade) €0 – Jersey Scarf (handmade) €0 – Cuff Bracelet (gift) €0 – Studded Belts (thrifted) €1 – Dolman T-shirt (bought in Korea years ago) €0  –  Leopard-Print Leggings (part of a PJ set gift) €0  – Buckled Biker Boots (ebay) €4

Total cost: €5

  1. perfect! and you can switch out the leopard band around the hat with another pattern or color should the need arise;) love the hat on you!! Also, I kind of enjoy how some of the TST themes push me out of my comfort zone 🙂

    1. yup, it’s fun to dress up in something I normally wouldn’t wear (& then fab to get back into my own style! 😉 )

  2. For some reason, I would of never of thought animal print would be out of your comfort zone, it looks great on you! Love the gif as well!!

    1. Thanks Jackline…if I could find a pair of funky chunky heeled shoes in a print like you have I just might give it go again 😉

  3. Cute hat! I love those leggings! I found a pair of jeans that looked very similar and I really wanted them but they were just slightly too small. :-/ Your outfit looks great! 🙂

    1. Thanks Erika…however if I ever do animal print again I think I’ll be pinching your groovy styling ideas 😉

  4. You rock it lady! And love that gif 🙂

    1. Thanks darlin’ …the only way I can (comfortably) pull off animal print is to rock it out…or quirk it up! 😉

  5. Subtle but sassy 🙂 I’m glad you didn’t go buying something just for the sake of having it for this week’s theme. Big fan of the hat!

    1. ha ha…we both went for the sass this TST! 😀

  6. Love it! Those leopard print leggings are awesome, I love how you found a way to make animal prints work for you!! 🙂

    1. Thanks…it was fun to give it a whirl but I think the leggings shall now return to their former PJ state 😉

  7. Love it! Especially the hat!

    1. Thanks, Alex…the hat pretty much made the entire outfit ‘work’, without it just looked like I was wearing PJs – which I kinda, sorta was 😉

  8. You are too funny! I am not a lover of animal print either. My daughter got a whole bunch of animal print for Christmas and I have yet to put her in them. But that is a cool idea….interchangeable hat bands. 😀

    1. Ugh, animal print on a sweet lil’ girlie…just no. *Unless it’s part of aan adorable or hilarious costume 😉

      1. That is true!

  9. Love this! I’m so not an animal print lover either, glad to see we both found ways to work it in, love that hat!

    1. Yep, and we both rather awesomely chose headgear as our animal print showcase 😉

    Your hat is so cute! I actually do like leopard print, but I chose birds today instead, lol. Sort of springy!

    1. Cheers Beth…that hat is about as animal print as I’ll ever get 😉
