Cat Ears: Wearing Kitschy Trends (Without Looking Ridiculous)
Animal Ears Cap Here, Faux Leather Dolphin Shorts Here, Black Buckle Heeled Boot Here, Printed Blouse Here, Watch (Michael Kors), Fortress Cuff here, Earrings (Forever21) There always is a kitschy trend making its rounds on the fashion scene that only the brave and bold dare wear. One extreme example is the McDonald’s paraphernalia at Moschino that will turn into a wig-wearing Dinosaur theme come Resort 2015.

Zara Jacket *sold out, Blouse Forever21 (this one is a staple!) , Trousers similar here, Heels in Black here Answer: Keep the rest simple. I absolutely love this fringed/sequin Zara jacket and it took me over a month to stalk it and get it in my closet as it sold out so fast.
