2 Ways to Tame a Leopard Dress, part 1: Meow!

2 Ways to Tame a Leopard Dress, part 1: Meow!

When Kiyonna mentioned that they were coming out with the Betsey Ruched dress in Leopard Print, I was like….OMG, I must have it immediately!!!! But then…the doubts crept in…I started wondering if I really could pull off a full-body v-neck leopard print ruched dress. Was it too over-the-top even for me???

Then, I opened the package and tried it on and the only thing I could think was…MEOW. lol. This was a dress that makes a statement! It says…Yes, I’ve got curves, and I know how to flaunt them! 
It’s impossible to wear this dress and fade into the crowd. You are not made to blend in…you are confident and sexy, and this dress projects that to the world. And even if you are feeling a little self-conscious, this dress will help you “fake it til you make it.”
I debuted it at my first Chic Swaps event in mid-February and paired it with some shiny red heels, gold jewelry, a retro hairstyle and set it off with a red flower in my hair. I was going for the old-school vixen look. 

The event was a success, and so was the dress!!!

This dress was so awesome, that I didn’t just want to wear it to special events, I wanted to rotate it into my everyday wardrobe. So I challenged myself: Can I make this Kiyonna Leopard-Print Betsey Ruched dress work-appropriate????

Tune in on Monday to see how I styled it for the office. 🙂
