swatches of leopard




 



On my blouse are swatches of leopard.  






My sleeves flow down like waves of water.

My blouse is thrifted.
I like the bell sleeves.

I won the brooch I'm wearing in a giveaway
from Crafty Moira her shop is Literary Tease.


My brooch is reminiscent of antique,
& so are my earrings.

I don't like the sleeves with
this jacket though.
These earrings were from my
in-laws many years ago.
I got this thrifted jacket
in Portland, Oregon in 2008.


The off white jacket, with ruffles on its cuffs, & buttons down the middle.



And now for some music with leopard in its name.


Bringin' On The Heartbreak by Def Leppard 

.."Gypsy, sittin' lookin' pretty

A broken rose with laughin' eyes
You're a mystery, always runnin' wild
Like a child without a home
You're always searching, searching for a feeling
But it's easy come and easy go"...
