My mother loved animal prints, so I’m always drawn to them because it makes me think of her. When I saw these joggers on a clearance rack outside the store, I headed straight to the fitting room and was delighted that they fit because they were the only pair left. They’re comfortable and so far I’ve only worn them around the house.
Today I decided to go out for some fresh air for a photoshoot. I wore my Covered Perfectly top (made in USA) with animal print jewellery (made in Canada). My faux fur jacket is from the Canadian designer, Joseph Ribkoff (made in Canada).
My brown beret is thrifted–$2.99–part of my beret collection.
Faux suede booties are at least 15 years old and they still fit! Isn’t it great that we don’t usually grow out of shoes when we grow up and that’s my excuse for having more shoes and boots than I really need.
What are your favourite animal prints!

Hi Carmen!
I love this look! See, snakeskin on the mind! I enjoy hearing about what bloggers moms liked to wear and see the influence. Your beret looks sweet on you, I dont look great in hats! Love the deeper accents of the accessories
Enjoy your week!

Thanks so much Jess! My mom had a HUGE influence on me, even more so now and I find myself looking in the mirror and seeing her. Then I smile and say, “Thank you mom!” I always used to tell her she’s the best mom I ever had! 🙂

Lovely! Are they joggers cuz they’re short? Fleece lined? Snake print is not my thing. As a matter of fact, I don’t think I own any animal print. Just doesn’t appeal. Maybe if they did it in purple?? lol
My Mama loves it tho! ❤

You’re too young to love animal print – wait till you’re old enough! 😉 Joggers are a stylish version of sweatpants, designed for comfort with an elastic waist and elastic or cuffs at the ankles. Typical sweatpants are too frumpy in my opinion but I like these ones. 🙂

That is a great quote Carmen. ♥ You look great, I love that scarf you have on too. I found a snakeskin top at my mum’s which sort of fits, I think that is the only animal print think I have. There is a real snakeskin handbag with matching purse from the 50’s- not sure what to do with that.

The quote is great, I thought so too! ❤️ It’s my philosophy: we can choose to be happy, content and grateful. I also have a snakeskin print minidress that belonged to my mom which I have never shown yet. As for real snakeskin or other animal skin, that’s not something I want to wear. 😦

That is exactly it, I don’t want to take a real snakeskin bag out, hence I am not sure what to do. I certainly don’t want to wear real animals.

So glad we feel the same. We can imitate the beauty of animals without harming them. ❤️

Many thanks for your kind words! I do love the Parisian look of berets and it is my favourite hat in the winter: warm and stylish 🙂
