BDIB: Walk On The Wild Side

Leopard Print. Faux Leather Shorts. Black & Gold Accessories. Red Lips. Steve Maddens.

This has to be one of my favourite outfits ever.

Another edition of Bloggers Do It Better. And this one came just in time. The theme: A walk on the wild side – Animal Prints. I had so much fun with this outfit. I’ve had this top for about a year now, I got it when I was still living in Florida but was waiting for the right time to wear it. Bermuda’s FNO & this BDIB challenge was perfect timing! Since I was walking on the wild side I thought I’d go all the way and add a red lip. If you read regularly you know I never wear lipstick, I never really like it on me plus you have to keep reapplying several times a day, I barely reapply lipgloss when I wear it. But I took the chance and now I’m thinking I may do it more often. It gives an edge to the outfit. And leopard print, such a huge trend for fall! It was everywhere at BFNO. See what other animal prints are in this season and take a look at the rest of the BDIB challenge outfits here.

I wore this outfit to Bermuda’s Fashion Night Out last weekend. It was such a success I’m proud of my island. The fashion industry here in Bermuda is very small even though there is such a demand for it. But in the past few years it has really bloomed, models are being recognized (locally and internationally), designers are blooming and photographers are everywhere! And now blogging has even entered the picture 😀 Hopefully we can continue the growth and put Bermuda on the map for fashion!
