3.1 Phillip Lim S/S 2013

But how cool are leopard sleeves? Pretty freaking cool if you ask me. When I saw a leopard sleeved sweatshirt make its way down the 3.1 Phillip Lim Spring 2013 runway (and previously on rappers like Meek Mill wearing Duckie Confetti), my heart had little palpitations. I LOVE leopard and to have it used in detail like this is like the fashion version of bite size Snickers (have you ever noticed that bite sized Snickers taste SO MUCH better than a regular sized Snickers?).

Burberry Fall 2013

So now I’m all about leopard sleeves. There’s a white button down blouse currently at H&M that has leopard sleeves and I NEED it. I saw it in store at the H&M in Atlantic Station but they only had two left and neither was my size, then when I tried to race to the one in Cumberland mall, I got there three minutes after closing, and the H&M in Town Center mall in Kennesaw doesn’t have them yet (sorry Georgia, but this is why I can’t live here–there’s only FIVE H&M stores in the entire state as opposed to 36 T-H-I-R-T-Y-S-I-X in NYC). I NEED it. This is also why H&M needs to hurry up and have e-commerce in the US. I feel like by the time I get back home, it will be hard to find in NYC. Grrr.

If you’re in the UK, you can have at it here.

But not just leopard on the sleeves, but patches of leopard on clothing also rocks my socks. Case in point everything in this widget (which if you’re jonesin’ for the animal print, you can buy them right here and now):

More Topman…

And PLEASE don’t get me started on how much I want one of Burberry’s leopard print and classic check print infused bags.

*sigh*

Are you digging the leopard sleeves and patch detailing, too? Tell me in the comments!
