It seems like every 2 - 3 years the leopard/animal print trend re-surfaces in the world of fashion. Some presences are bigger than others and sometimes it's both leopard, as well as tiger prints, but this year is the year of the leopard. And its presence is HUGE - so huge that I myself, a newly converted leopard print lover, is coveting almost every leopard piece out there.
I was always convinced that animal prints weren't "my style". It required someone a little edgier than myself to brave the animal kingdom, but quickly that all changed. A few weeks ago I stumbled on this amazing sweater while thrifting and I must say that to date this is one of my favorite finds, but the best part? Shortly after I found this sweet sweater, I was flipping through the new Urban Outfitters catalog and saw that an eerily similar sweater was on one of the models. I remember thinking, "Kudos Tabitha...Kudos. This is a big win for your wardrobe."

Oooh, what a great thrifted find! I love it!
Hehe..I thought that sweater was the UO sweater!!! Till you mentioned it:) Sweet find!!
Oh my gosh! LOOOOOVE the sweater, plus you thrifted it? Fantastic =D
I love this sweater, can't believe you thrifted it. I wouldn't have guessed that. The scarf is a nice touch too.
I have a pair of leopard flat that I wear the hell out of and have had forever, but don't have any printing clothes. If I could find something like you did, I would be all over it!
don't you LOVE finding something you love for next to nothing, and then seeing crazy prices on similar, new stuff? so satisfying :)
i thrifted an awesome oversized leopard sweater last year and SOLD it....ugh, still kicking myself!
I really love this sweater. You're inspiring me to get something animal print :) What a great find!
I love leopard! For the last few years, I just seem to be adding a piece here and a piece their to my wardrobe. Its my favorite print!
Oh nice find! I love leopard print, I have to say it took me a little while to ease into the idea that I could in fact wear it, but once I crossed over, well lets just say I'm never looking back.

You thrifted that sweater??!! WOW, what a find!! It is gorgeous and so on trend (plus I love that it is white based vs. the standard camel leoaprd).
Totally great find! I've been looking for a leopard sweater while I've been thrifting but refuse to pay full price for one at the store. Could you tell me what thrift store you shop at?
Wow that really is sooo similar to the UO one, which makes your awesome thrifting find a million times cooler! And makes me love you even more, so cool how you showed them together, keep up the awesome secondhand shopping girl : )
I always always thought the leopard print wasn't for me but have been eying it lately.

You look CUTE in leopard! I call the sweater you're wearing snow leopard. SO COOL! I've embraced it in bits. Scarves and I'm waiting on these $250 J. Crew leopard ballet flats to go down in price. I don't know how I missed all your posts Tabitha. Blogger reader can be horrible at times. :(
