I still feel a little awkward having a Z splashed across my chest, but I just couldn’t stop myself. The top has a slight neoprene-y feel to it, which gives it structure as well as that unexpected quality that neoprene brings to anything that isn’t a dive suit.

If you type ‘leopard’ in my search engine (top right) you’ll get a lot of leopard results. What can I say? I have an affinity for the cat. If I had a spirit animal I’d imagine it being some sort of sleek, nimble feline. But then again, don’t we all?

just as recognizable as the infamous $600 dollar lunch bag, is Jil Sander’s other ‘it bag’ — equally understated and just as quietly genius. i’ve been meaning to get a cat print back into my wardrobe and i think this would be the perfect addition.

I feel like a lot of us are pedestrians in our own lives…watching from the periphery through good and bad. Some times it takes a really hard shaking to wake you up and push you into action. i’m not really sure what kicked my ass into gear….but for onceĀ  (finally) in a long time….I feel like i’m living life and no longer just observing it…i’m defunking all. on. my. own.
