May Dressing 10: A Different Kind of Stripes

I really love black-and-white and animal prints...so you know I love this dress!



The zebra-print dress is from Target's Merino line in January 2010; the shoes are Fioni "Loveit" black patent pumps from Payless in May 2011. Other accessories are a black hat, red jewelry, belt, and black hose.



Portraits with a comment:



Why is it I can't look like this in a hat?



Maybe because I don't have Arthur Edeson doing my lighting, as Ingrid did?
