A Leopard Never Loses Her Spots

You can take the girl from the city, but you can’t take the city from the girl; but you can make everyone stare when she’s the only one wearing heals so she feels self conscious and over dressed and starts wearing flats all the time. #welcometomysuburbanlife

Sorry my outfit posts have been rather lackluster the past few months; I’m hoping they’ll change as I’m on a new regimen of reading more fashion news and staying current and up to date and caring less about what these suburbanites think of my “Scandalous” ensembles. This outfit though, will get a spicing up soon enough, but figured I’d share my new dress with you all anyway! I got it at TJ Maxx, working on my Maxxinista cred. It’s tight, jacquard knit, warm, and such a fun print; the perfect dress for a wintery date night.

If you’re into fashion in the slightest you’ve noticed the rising trend of intricate mirrored prints. My collection is small, with this Forever 21 skirt from this outfit post, and my thrifted maxi from this outfit post, but I’m still looking to add more to my collection!

We’ve seen it with Jonathon Saunders, Givenchy, D&G, McQueen… and all the knock-off/off-price brands and shops. I think it’s safe to say this trend is sticking and it’s time to invest in a statement piece. What I’m currently lusting? These gorgeous mirror prints by Alexander McQueen (view the set here!).

Seriously considering dipping into my savings for this last one….can’t get much more ‘me’ than bone inspired lace in black!

What do you think of this trend? Also, the sale lace dress, worth a potential investment? Thoughts? Discuss, and be sure to check out MatchesFashion (where I found these dresses) for great other finds and deals!
