Uptown Girl





Tshirt (Target); Pants (Banana Republic Outlet); Scarf (Francesca's);
Belt (Gap); Shoes (Kohls); Bag (Bueno find at Marshalls)

Leopard is a magical print... it can make you stand a little taller, feel like a royal, and it also has a bad ass vibe that every girl needs from time to time (that's right - don't mess with me today... I'm wearing a leopard scarf AND leopard heels).  I'm certainly no uptown girl, although this outfit makes me feel like I could play one on TV.  And I'm definitely not a downtown girl (one way streets and street parking make me beyond crazy). I'm more of a suburban girl who frequents the uptown and downtown on special occasions (and of course only when other people are driving).

I like how you paired it with a neutral (still cute) outfit. Love the downtown look :-)

Maria Gabriela B said...

I totally agree! leopard print makes you stand out and look fabulous even if is only a scarf! I love the shoes and how the whole look is very classy but still including leopard print!

xo!

Leopard print always makes a casual outfit look more fancy... Yet I never seem to be able to wear it! You look amazing! :-)

Bravoe Runway said...

I grew up in the suburbs and now I live downtown and when I go back to visit my parents...it's like culture shock. Seriously parking is free? Seriously there are restaurants you can just walk in?? NICE!

Those heels are fantastic!!

FASHION TALES said...

I love the leopard heels. My parents live in the countryside and I'm always taken aback by not being able to find a taxi, and driving everywhere, haha! You look amazing! Happy weekend.

Unknown said...

Love those leopard shoes. What really caught my attention (other than the print of course) is that (elastic?) strap across the top. I have a pair of wedges in a similar style and they are supremely comfortable. Anyways, they are just gorgeous on you and I like the matching dark toenail polish.

Ester DurĂ£es said...

wow I love your scarf, it's fabulous and it looks great with that bag! :)

Julia said...

Those shoes look incredibly comfortable for being high heels. Is that an elastic strap over the top? LOVE it!!

Haha, I'm with you. I'm a suburban girl who occasionally takes part in the uptown & downtown areas and events. Hehe.

fleurani said...

Those heels are AMAZING Heather and love how they match your lovely scarf. You look beautiful as always my dear :-)

I'm FINALLY getting around to blogging and checking out your fabulous blog. So nice meeting you at Two Birds last week! I am also very much a suburban girl, sometimes pretending to be an uptown or downtown girl - and someone else always drives! Let's arrange a puppy play date sometime :)
