Leopard blouse makes it's debut

Happy Friday dear ladies!
First outing for the leopard blouse and it looks like our weather is going to clear up! Yay!
WIW
leopard blouse JCrew
levi demi-curve black skinnies
taupe shooties
coral jacket
red earrings
gold watch
Poppy raincoat
orange purse

I tried a black belt with it but couldn't decide whether I like it or not so I opted not to belt. Opinions please?

That is one fantastic blouse and you are going to have loads of fun with it. The jacket works great with or without the belt, I think i like it better sans belt, though.

K. Period.

Oh Meredith, you look beautiful! Perfectly styled. I too like the simplicity of it without the belt. You have such a good eye!

Argh - just got logged out of YLF and lost my reply

BUT this is a great, chic styling of your leopard shirt! I definitely prefer it without the belt so it can give you the long, lean column look!

Perfect proportions between the shirt and jacket, and the whole top with the skinnies

Wowza, Meredith! This is a great look for you (definitely go sans belt). I haven't always had time to comment lately, but I've noticed how exceptionally stylish you are these days. Looking good, lady!

And you're making me really want one of those JCrew leopard blouses...

I like it best without the belt for the reasons MNsara said -- you look like one tall drink of water!! LOVE!!

Ladies!
You have made me feel so good about this purchase and much more confident wearing it. I think the shirt can be dressed up with a skirt and heels or dressy pants and heels, or down with jeans and boots.

Meredith,
I *LOVE* this outfit on you! I think it would look really great with your peep toe shoes, too!
Definitely without the belt looks better. Have you tried letting the cuffs of the blouse peek out and fold back over the jacket sleeves?

You look great!

You have given me an idea to layer something colorful over my leopard blouse, what a fab combo! I prefer unbelted.

leave off the belt. Nice way to add more color - you look terrrrrrrific (say that with a growl!).

Amazing, Meredith! This is a great find (particularly unbelted). It will be versatile and it's suits your vibrant, but unfussy look!

No belt is definitely lengthening you more. Really pretty with the bright jacket! A great outfit.

Really fabulous! Love your bold new direction

another option for the leopard blouse is to wear it partially buttoned like a cardigan with a white tank and white jeans/pants ..long gold necklace and/or gold bangles ....it easily transitions into warmere weather

I like the booties/blouse bookending you have going on there. I prefer the outfit without the belt - the belt just seems to add extra "fussiness" and stops the eye.
