Tuesday's Outfit

Dress: Express

Shoes: Nine West

Headband, Necklace & Ring: Forever 21

Earrings: Nordstrom

Let's see...yesterday, was your typical Tuesday. I woke up, showered, went to work then went to Joe Shanghai's for my weekly fill of soup dumplings. Oh wait, I got in a fight with a knife and lost. I sliced my finger while trying to remove the seed from an avocado. A band aid wasn't gonna cut it, so I had to bandage my digit using gauze and tape. I have a huge hitchhiker thumb and I can't text.

So Joe's was an absolute disaster! Trying to juggle soup dumplings using chopsticks with a bum thumb is NO BUENO. I lost about 75% of the soup from each dumpling. I was definitely not in tip top shape last night.

Anyway, on to a better topic. Yesterday's blog generated quite a bit of noise. Thanks for all your kind comments…they are always welcomed.

I had no idea so many of you are afraid of animal prints. But, I’m glad to see some of you want to walk on the “wild side”. Animal prints DO NOT BITE. Animal prints can be subtle if you accessorize them properly. If you’re afraid of attracting too much attention, try wearing some bright shoes to draw the eye downward.

I’ve put together some of my favorite cheap fashionable animal print pieces under $40.
