Ahh, yes. I’ve hopped on the cheetah print bandwagon and I LOVE it. I feel like cheetah print is just one of those things that you either love or absolutely hate. For example, the day I brought home this cheetah coat, my dad cringed and made fun of it saying that I was stuck in the 80′s while my mom gushed over it. Oh well, you can’t win ‘em all, folks. But, also a guy at the Arkells concert the other night asked if we could switch jackets. So clearly, this coat is a winner.
And before we start discussing the outfit, we need to get something out of the way. Is this cheetah print or leopard print? And what’s the difference between the two? Let me google this.
Okay, after a quick google search, I learned that“Cheetah spots are equally spaced, solid black dots.Leopard print is more complex. They have a golden brown coat with black shapes that resemble a horseshoe or circle” (Google, 2019). Well, shit. Guys. I think this is leopard print. How awkward. Do I have to change the title of my post now? Ugh. A cheetah print coat just sounds so much cuter than a leopard print coat. We will just keep on living life in denial. Sound good? Cool.
Alright now that we got that cleared up, we can move on to the outfit. I’m wearing my cheetah coat with an all black outfit AKA black jeans (they’re actually dark grey) and a black turtleneck (the Seaton top from Aritzia). But then, the all-black outfit stops there, y’all. We spiced it up today with these brown suede boots. Long story about these boots. Are you ready? Okay so I wear these Old Navy black boots constantly (see here). They’re just the classic pointy toe booties with an elastic triangle down the side. Exactly like the Acne Jensen boots (that are $18231820938102- a lil’ out of my price range). Well, my Acne wannabe Old Navy boots are wearing out so I’ve been trying to find a replacement (these (this, this, and this) are in the running but they’re just not perfect. So when I stumbled upon these brown suede boots from Marc Fisher on clearance at Winners, I knew they were the perfect boots to replace my Old Navy ones. They’re comfy. They’re chic. They have a cute metal tip on the toe. But there’s just one big problem. They’re not black. So, I’m currently on the hunt for them in black. I will keep y’all posted on my journey.
