IN LOVE WITH LEOPARD… AGAIN

I love animal prints. And I love dresses. This is a perfect combination for me. I found this shift dress on sale and I am really impressed with its quality and fit. A jacket is a must as spring still hasn’t arrived and my ZARA blazer (seen here) matches really well. Admittedly, I only took it off for the photos!

As previously mentioned, I don’t like tights at all but German weather unfortunately still doesn’t allow me to wear bare legs yet (really wish I could all year round!) so here they are again… hopefully for the last time! Finally the weather forcast is promising warmer temperatures for next week, I can’t believe it! Sunshine on my face, sun tan on my pale legs, no more tights, trousers and boots, planting some flowers on my terrace… oh yes, please!

:::::

Ich mag Leoprints. Und ich liebe Kleider. Also ist das hier die perfekte Kombination.
Dieses leicht stretchige Etuikleid habe ich im Sale gekauft und bin von Qualität und Schnitt wirklich überzeugt. Ohne Jacke geht es leider aufgrund der Temperaturen noch nicht, aber mein ZARA Blazer, den ich bereits hier getragen habe, passt doch perfekt dazu, oder? Nein, ich bin noch nicht ärmellos rumgelaufen, das habe ich nur für’s Foto und Euch getan 🙂

Wie schon früher erwähnt, kann ich Strumpfhosen nicht ausstehen, aber leider muss auch das wieder sein (ganz entgegen meiner persönlichen Regel – keine Strümpfe und Socken von April bis Oktober, das liegt in der Familie!) und heute hoffentlich zum letzten Mal.
Ich kann es noch gar nicht glauben, aber der Wetterbericht kündigt ja nun endlich wärmere Temperaturen ab Mitte nächster Woche an! Sonne, gebräunte Beine, offene Schuhe, Blumen auf die Terrasse stellen…ja! 

Thank you, danke, Jasmin, for taking my photos today!
My daughter Alena is off to London this week and her friend and photographer kindly offered to step in.

    As always you look perfect. All items are well chosen: from the bracelet to the bag. Like you, I love leopard, which you might already have noticed… But I could not wear that dress: your figure is sooooo good.
    As for tights… I wear hold ups which are more comfortable than tights. And… if there is a run in one leg, you can easily replace it. So with two pair you actually have three pair.

      Thank you so much, Greetje and I don't want to mention that I am currently on my highest weight ever… bring on spring so I can start running again!
      Hold ups are certainly sexier, great choice 🙂

    I adore leopard as well .. such a great print! I also don't like tights, panty hose etc. I think I just find the waist band too uncomfortable.

    Leopard is always great and this dress looks becoming on you! Your dress is wearable in all seasons and you have fun accessories, especially your attractive purse. Beautiful landscape behind you–lovely pictures.

      Ann, hopefully I can soon have a much greener spring background and my back garden finally finished. It is indeed a lovely landscape here.

    Liebe Annette,

    das Kleid steht dir suuper! Die Farben sind toll und nicht zu aufdringlich. Mir gefällt auch der V-Ausschnitt sehr, der macht immer ein schönes Dekolleté, trage ich auch sehr gerne.
    Die Tasche ist süß, hat eine schicke Form und passt perfekt dazu.

    Mich hat es gerade etwas gefröstelt als ich deine nackten Arme sah.. brrr
    ABER ab Mitte nächster Woche soll der Frühling endlich bei uns „landen“. Ich freue mich schon so sehr auf die Wärme und natürlich auf all die Outfits, die man dann auch draussen tragen kann 🙂

    That dress shows off your curves so well. The camel jacket really gives it a great work look. I love how you can have two totally different looks just by adding a jacket.

    I do not like too much animal print clothing, but your dress is an exception.
    It suits you, you are very pretty and socks, jacket and bag make a look formidable.
    I had a jacket equal to yours and use it much because I loved

    Tja und wegen Strumpfhosen… Ich bin auch froh, wenn ich keine mehr brauche. Ich habe fast die gleiche Regel. Ich sage immer: von O – O keine Strumpfhosen. (Ostern bis Oktober)

    So glad you dropped by so that I could find your blog too! Love this outfit and how you pulled it together! The weather here has been awful too – we are on vacation which is why we are enjoying the sun. Who knows what weather we'll be going home to?! Brave you for wearing tights! I gave up years ago and just wear pants or boots and leggings! Shhh….

    Anette, ich bin dem Leotrend auch absolut verfallen. Nichts schaut moderner mit nem Twist Exravanganz als dieses animal print. Bin absolut begeistert, wie du dieses Kleid mit dem cognac farbenen Blazer in einen chicen modernen Business look verwandelst. Super genial *thumps up*. Eines meiner Lieblingslook von dir :-).
    Wie ich sehe, wohnst du auch sehr ländlich oder? 🙂

    I feel like everyone wishes they could go year round without tights, but more often than not, they are a necessity.
