HOW TO MAKE A LEOPARD COAT MORE VERSATILE
We got a tiny bit of snow on Tuesday, so I took advantage of all of the white stuff to show you my new coat. When I first walked outside, it wasn’t snowing at all. I went next door and asked my daughter-in-law if she would take some photos for me since I had a couple of new coats that I wanted to put on the blog. She got dressed, and then we walked outside to a winter wonderland!
We didn’t get much more accumulation, but I sure appreciated the beautiful backdrop that the snow provided. There is not a large amount of snowfall where I live, so when we get the chance to play in the snow, we take it quickly. Every once in a while, it will dump a three-footer on us, and you should hear everyone complain. Lol! When you live in the mountains, the roads can be dangerous in the snow. But, thankfully, I live on the main road that gets cleared as soon as it snows, so I never have any problem. I love the snow, but I try not to say that out loud here. Lol! My house might get snowballed! Hahaha
I know that I have your attention! This coat is a real show stopper and attention-getter. This faux fur leopard coat is the perfect combination of style and warmth. It turns up the glamour button a notch or two. You might have noticed that the coat is reversible. That is like getting two coats for the price of one.
The black cowl-neck sweater is something that I picked up at Old Navy last Sunday when I went shopping. I love the huge cowl-neck design that is not confining at all. And, I love the casual style of this sweater. I looked on the website, and I found several different colors of this sweater, but not black. Well, I did find one black sweater, but it was a maternity sweater. Do you think that I bought one by mistake? I know that I have gained weight, but I don’t think that I need to shop in the maternity section. Lol!
I remembered to grab a pair of black cashmere gloves. The last couple of times that I took pictures in the snow, I forgot, and my fingers about froze. You wouldn’t think it would be that hard to remember to grab gloves when it is cold outside. Haha!
The Walnut teardrop necklace looks great against the black backdrop of the sweater. I didn’t think that I needed any more jewelry than the necklace.
I waited until the last to tell you the best thing about this coat. It is on sale for 40% off, but the sale ends tomorrow, so don’t fool around and kick yourself in the behind later. This is the Nordstrom Fall sale (check out this post for more must-have items), and they have a huge selection of clothing on sale for 40% off. I am wearing a large in this coat so that I can wear bulky sweaters, like the one that I have on today. Here is the link to the sale, and here is the link to the coat.
Because the Nordstrom sale ends tomorrow, I wanted to give you a couple of my “top” lists to help you navigate the overwhelming amount of choices.

I’m not seeing pics either…only 2-3.
The copy on the leopard coat on Nordstrom’s website does not say reversible. Just checking to be sure this is the same coat before ordering. Thx!
Great coat and like always you look fabulous!
I love it but alas, I live on the coast so I couldn’t justify owning it for maybe two or three times a year but it would be mine if I lived in the TN MTS.
You look amazing! That coat is too warm for my area of California, but I can sure appreciate it through you!
LOVE. what else is there to say.
No problem seeing the pictures here! I love the coat, it looks great on you♡
Hi, I love the coat! On-line it doesn’t mention that it is reversible. They say it’s lined. I was just wondering if it truly is…If so, I’d order it….thanks so much.
Lori, I didn’t know it was reversible either. But, when it came, the tag on the coat said it was reversible!
Ironically, when I posted my first comment, the page reloaded and all of the pictures appeared! Technology! ?
Like the others, I can only see the first 2 pictures and the rest of the photos are blank. This happened the other day as well. Miss seeing all you post!
Has anyone else mentioned that some of your photos aren’t loading correctly? I can only see a faint shadow of some of them. Reloading the page doesn’t fix the problem. You photos didn’t load correctly for me yesterday, either. You do look great in that leopard coat, though!
