Today it was such a challenge to incorporate belted animal print into my outfit as called for by the Fab Finds Under 50: March Inspiration Calendar. I only have 1 thing with animal print in it, a dress which is clearly meant for someone younger, shorter & a bit slimmer. Oh well, I tried a few different things and ended up with this look which I'm pretty pleased with.

Details: Brown dress: thrift store; Animal print dress: Kohls; Tights: Marshalls; Bracelet: ShockBoutique.com; Watch: Gift.

The animal print dress just peaks out at the top as it's layered beneath this brown dress I got at the thrift store a few weeks back.

And, surprisingly, I did not throw on a pair of funky colored tights and just stuck with brown. Now it's time for lunch, then gym & then home. I'm getting a bit behind in work and so I might have to ban myself from checking up on my favorite style blogs for the rest of the day.

Oh - and the animal print dress by itself - a hot mess but I'll show it anyway.

I love just the peek of animal at the sleeves. Also, the brown dress has such great detailing on the front!

I think the little tiny pop of animal print is perfect. I would've never thought to layer two dresses like you did-so creative of you!
