Alice is a fellow aficionado of bright pink and leopard print, so it's a no-brainer that she put them together...twice, actually, in almost exactly the same way, she relates in her post. I decided to do a winterized version of this outfit using the bright pink velvet blazer I bought thrifting with my mom at Christmas.

When I washed the blazer, a seam along the shoulder came loose, but I am equal to the task of repairing it. Then it was time to make an outfit with all the textures--velvet, sweater knit, fuzzy fake fur...
Grey leopard sweater dress (Kohls), $6.67/wear+
*Bright pink velvet blazer (thrifted, Old Navy), $6.99/wear+
Black scarf (Target), $1.33/wear
+ black neon polka dot scarf (Target), $4.00/wear
Grey sweater tights
Fuzzy black boots (Walmart), $3.33/wear

...even two kinds of scarf, a silky polyester polka dot one and a...I'm not sure what to call it, but a "normal" woven scarf made from a non-silky material. Well whatever, they are cute together.
Even if I did feel a little bit like a character from the Flintstones from the waist down.

I've been working on the main quest line of Fallout 3 today and loving it.
