I've previously admitted that I have not always felt comfortable wearing full on leopard print clothing. An accessory here and there, oh yes, I mean of course – but a full look, um, not so much. I never took the time to consider why I felt that way, I suppose it’s because I thought it just didn’t feel like “Me”. My feelings have changed, and boy am I glad that they have!

I won this Jungle Cat Fit and Flare Dress courtesy of an Instagram contest, and it is simply glorious! The bodice has unique faux leather details, while the skirt is super full and generously styled with box pleats.

Being the vintage lover that I am, it seemed only right to pair it with vintage mink accents, and a retro do. My husband says he likes this dress styled best without the vintage accents.

What’s your opinion: Do you like the added personal touches of vintage fur or not so much? For more vintage inspiration, check out my blog here: http://bit.ly/1GDrkLM
