The Perfect Leopard Sweater and Predatory Prints!

Marc Jacobs, Leopard Sweater

Ever since I saw the Gwen Stefani video Cool, I have wanted the leopard sweater she wears in the video. It's perfect! I love the video, it's visually amazing. What can I say...I love pop music and Gwen and Italy - makes me want to plan a trip to Lake Como

Since I have never been able to find that sweater (*it probably Dolce & Gabanna, circa 2005) I am thinking about his Marc Jacob cashmere sweater above. However the truth is...I have made some animal print fashion mistakes, please see below - it seemed like a good idea at the time...

Animal Print Mistake, Exhibit A

......a predatory print mistake? It's looking a little like a Moo moo in this picture.

This is Beca Rory, 2007 never worn -- it actually looks terrible on me. Gray is not my color.

The model had this on with a pair of black stocking and black patent leather heels, very mod.

I guess it's just a little too much like a costume....for me.

Which got me thinking...I could be Mrs. Robinson for Halloween, get a wig and finally wear this darn thing. I wonder wear I can get a wig like this?

Below is Designer Markham Roberts, using Starks Leopard and Tiger Print Silk Velvets, Tastfully sprinkled into these amazing rooms!

Happy Friday!

My First eClient Project, Kristine Mullaney Design

Jim's Living Room, My First eclient

Jim in New York is my first eClient! It is pretty amazing, that he found me through this little Ol' blog and from there we were able to work together on his living room.

Of course, it helps that Jim has a great sense of style and knows what he wants, which make the distance and communicating a non-issue. This room is another great example of mixing retail pieces, older vintage finds, and some "designer elements" - to tie together the room and make it your own.

Here are some photos...

How perfect are these Rose Tarlow pillows? Jim, actually pays homage to Cy Twombly in the large painting above the sofa. I am still blown away that he painted this himself -- which is not a bad idea, if you happen to be talented enough to know how to paint!
