After I wrote yesterday’s post about Jackie Kennedy’s leopard print loveliness I may or may not have jumped on Etsy and splurged on this fabulous vintage 1960’s faux leopard coat…?! It’s in mint condition and is pretty much everything I’ve ever dreamed of. Needless to say, I can’t wait for it to arrive so I can have a little fashion show (in my mirror while Alfred looks on nodding approvingly…). Looking for something similar? I’d suggest starting here.
Do you approve???
oooh! i have been on a desperate hunt for a marvelous leopard swing coat since miss kate moss painted the town in one many moons ago :) this one is a gem, katie. cannnot wait to see you rockin’ it this winter!

I’ll approve! I have a thing for coats. I have so many and just bought one more this weekend. But Leopord is a statement, thats for sure!

Sylvie — Great minds think alike! I don’t know that I’ll look half as cool as Moss, but I’m excited all the same : )
Kirby — A thing for coats is a good thing indeed!
Sarah — We’ll see about that : )
Oh, it’s beautiful … nice purchase! That will serve you for years to come and for so many different occasions! Wear it with Verve!
It’s perfectly Kate!
LOVE! So perfect for this fall.
Approve… Looks adorable…..

HEARTILY approve. And yes, your pixie cut will provide the perfect tomboyish contrast to all that glamour.
That coat is BEYOND fabulous! You must post photos of you in it!
Love it! Wild about it!

RAD. That is going to look amazing!
This is sooooooooo phenomenal!
OOLALA!!! From the few photos I’ve seen of you, I can completely picture you in it. Your upcoming fall and winter will be very chic indeed!
My sister and I inherited my grandmother’s coat collection. Amongst the pristine items were a peacoat with a mink collar, a knee-length faux mink coat with a wide collar, and a calf/ankle-length camel hair coat. They’re no leopard print, but I’m going to rock them!
Totally approve! So bold and so chic. Can’t wait to see pics of you wearing it!
So approved!!! I have a major penchant for furs too (real or faux). Check out my 2 posts this week about my latest furry acquisitions!

I approve and am jealous. I have been on the hunt for a vintage leopard coat for years. That one will look fantastic on you!
Approve? Adore! I’m off to scour Etsy for my own leopard fix :) Fabulous!!!
So amazing!! I have been searching for years for the perfect vintage coat. Can’t wait to see pics of you in this little number!!
Thank you everyone!!! I will try to take photos once it arrives although I always feel a bit silly having my photo taken and splashed up here. We’ll see : )
Dying of jealousy! When shall we chat, darling?
Oh I just had to say that I was so inspired by your post and how gorgeous your coat looked so I went on a leopard fur coat hunt on Etsy myself….and I found a beauty and she will be mine in about a week or so. Thanks Katie your taste and style is just perfect. If it’s not too dorky to say…your totally my girl crush, hehe!
What do you think of her?
