It’s funny how things find you when you least expect it, like this leopard print scarf. When the neckerchief craze started I was very against it. Isn’t that always how it is with trends? You think to yourself, I wouldn’t be caught dead in that!?!? That is until you give it a try to see what the hype is all about.
By now you probably know I’m obsessed with leopard print. So, after falling hopelessly in love with the neckerchief trend I was on the look out for the perfect, and affordable, scarf to add to my closet. After months of searching in stores, on-line, in friend’s closet, I finally found it. My perfect scarf was in the bandana aisle at Walmart for $1! The odds.
I share this story with you because so many people miss out on finding pieces because they refuse to go into certain stores. I’ve found some of my favorite pieces in the sales bin of Forever 21 or hidden in a thrift store. Like many things in life, you have to be open to new ideas, things, places in order to find what you’re looking for. So the next time your friend invites you into Walmart to get hair supplies, go inside. You might be surprised. Wondering how else you can rock leopard print? See how to style a leopard print clutch, leopard print booties and a leopard print purse.
Now I want to hear from you, do you try shopping at different places?

Gorgeous! Sometimes Walmart has some great items, for sure. You just need to be willing to check it out, like you said. I definitely have some fave pieces from Walmart and Salvation Army! Isn’t that makes them so special, too, the story of how they came to be yours?!

I totally agree Shelbee, I also get a little bit, or a lot a bit, of joy when I tell people where it’s from and how I got it at such a great price!
I can’t believe that scarf was $1 and from Walmart! Love this look!

That was my exact reaction when I found it too lol. I’m glad you enjoyed the look and shared Sierra!
The leopard print scarf seriously adds spice and oomph to an all black ensemble! I’m with you on not wanting to be caught dead with a new trend and slowly warm up to it after. I’m hosting my first ever Wednesday Linkup and would love to see you get link-in 😉

Thanks Jess, it wasn’t exactly what I had in mind (I was hoping for more of a silkier fabric) but I’m definitely getting my money’s worth out of it!
