Challenge Your Closet- Week 2

Life After I
Welcome to week 2 of the challenge!  I hope you are all loving this as much as me!  I'm finding so many outfit combinations that I never would have come up with had I not had to get creative with my style. 
Today's theme is leopard.  I have had a love of leopard that can be traced back to high school.  I had {still have} a leopard overnight suitcase that I packed with my leopard print PJs to all of my slumber parties.  My friends teased me, still do, over my love of this animal print.  It's something that I consider a neutral, a fun way to add some pizzazz to your outfit, and it's the only animal print I like.  
This scarf is courtesy of my blog friend and Scentsy/ Grace Adele director, Laura.  She sent me this scarf last week and I could not wait to get my hands on it.  I immediately started pinning outfits with leopard scarfs and had visions of my own creations cooking in my head, long before it arrived.  It's SO soft, it's HUGE, and it's now my must-have fall accessory.
Outfit 1
This would be my in between seasons approach to the scarf.  Maxi dress=summer but jean jacket & scarf=fall.  Perfect for the hot days that turn into cool nights.  
Dress- Old Navy, Jacket- Old Navy, Scarf- Grace Adele.

Outfit 2
These are my new red jeans, what do we think?  I think I'm in love.  These were one of my new purchases for the fall and I'm glad I indulged. I have big, big plans for these jeans this year.
Chambray top- H&M, jeans- Macys, black flats- Target.

Outfit 3
This outfit was pin-spired.  I have owned this sweater for a million years.  Seriously, I think I got it in college.  It's cozy, it's comfy, it screams cooler weather. 
Sweater- JCrew, tank, leggings, boots- Target.  

And that's just the beginning of my leopard escapades.  

There is a printed blouse, flats, a cardi and a cute tank where that came from. Stay tuned.
How are you doing with the challenge? Are you coming up with any fun outfits?  Recreated anything you've seen here or elsewhere?  Let's see it!

    I love outfit #3! I've been trying to do with my closet now that the weather is changing and I'm able to wear my cute fall clothes again this year (last fall I was pregnant). It's almost like having a new wardrobe since it's been so long since I could wear a lot of this stuff.

    I love the red jeans! That is a great look with the denim. In love.
    So lets talk about leggings... I want to do the legging thing but I haven't found any that aren't see through or have a weird seam, etc. What brand are these? Maybe you should do a leggings theme post so I can get educated ;-)
