$1 Thrift Store Find + Mahogany Closet Mondays Fashion Link Up

Happy New Year!!! I almost can't believe it's already 2016. I am excited about a new year full of amazing experiences and growth. ... I got this jacket at a thrift store on sale a little while ago for only $1. The first thing I thought was how perfect it would be for the holidays. Then I threw it in my closet and forgot it was there. So when I happen to see it the other day I knew I had to hurry up and pull it out while it was still close to the holidays. I paired it with my ultimate little black dress, these red heels I also wore here, here and here and voila. I really liked the way it came out. What do you think? What are you excited for in 2016?

Leopard and Snake - Mixing Animal Prints

When I'm thinking about mixing animal prints I treat it like I would mixing any print. If I'm going to wear two different types of animal prints then I try to stay in the same color family. This leopard print trench coat and these snake print shoes are also two of my favorite pieces, definite staples in my closet. They're easy to just throw on and go with almost everything. I think I actually like it better with the two different animal prints. If the shoes were leopard print too I probably wouldn't wear them together. I think it would fill too matchy matchy. Threw on this little black cowl neck dress and some accessories and ready to go!

Let me know what you think about this outfit and mixing animal prints in general.
