A Leopard & Black Coat With Fur & Blush Pink

I’m secretly so pleased it’s cold enough to wear my leopard/black Zara coat I bought a year ago – don’t tell anyone I said that!!

I’ve worn it a few times this winter but this is the first time it’s reappeared on the blog. When I got it out of storage for my seasonal wardrobe switch I remember sighing… it’s a beauty and was coveted by a great many bloggers when it was available to buy last year.

When looking for similar coats to suggest in this post, it was funny that I’d chosen to wear my blush pink DIY cardigan underneath, as the nicest alternative I found was this River Island blush/leopard two-tone coat – it’s as if one of their designers put my outfit in a blender and came up with their own version. I like the simplicity of wearing mostly black with leopard, so the pink cardigan and fur collar with a brooch add the right amount of fussiness to the outfit. Plus I purposely wanted to wear my hair up with it, but boy – were my ears cold…!!

Are you still totally in love with any of your purchases from last winter?
