THE SIMPSONS GO BAZAAR

I used to keep pretty much every copy of every magazine I subscribed to, which obviously grew to be a bit of a problem. So these days, I just hold onto special editions of magazines, though I do still have my back issues of Dazed & Confused and The Face, which I don't think I'll ever part with.

Anyhoo, whilst having a bit of a clear out the other day, I came across a copy of Harper's Bazaar's August 2007 issue with this fabulous piece featuring The Simpsons, Linda Evangelista and a host of A-list designers. I love Marge in Chanel, Lisa rocking those pearls for Lanvin and how about Homer seated front row at Louis Vuitton?!

ANIMAL PRINT

I rejected animal print clothing for years. I thought it was a bit vulgar and too reminiscent of Bet Lynch! (Or Scary Spice).

For those of you not familiar with Britain's long running beloved soap opera, Coronation Street, Bet Lynch was a chain smoking, leopard print wearing barmaid with a blonde beehive for days.
Not really the look I was going for in my twenties (or at anytime if I'm honest!)

However, I guess there's a bit of Bet in all of us, because I have a confession to make - I LOVE ANIMAL PRINTS!

Once I finally admitted that to myself, I kinda went bananas; jeans, blouses, shoes, socks. You name it and I own it in some kind of Leopard or Cheetah print.

So I wanted to share this seasons must have animal print items with you here.
Enjoy!
