Skippy Says: Please Don't Hate Me (OOTD)

I have a confession to make that might bet me booed straight out of fashion blogdom. I don't like animal print. Nope, not leopard print or tiger print or even zebra print. Yes, Stacy and Clinton, I get that leopard is a neutral. And I even accept that it's fabulous. But as fabulous as it is on others, it's just not me. 

And as long as I'm getting stuff off my chest, I'll also confess that I don't like faux fur. Or real fur. There, I said it. Please don't hate me. I'm a people pleaser, which means I don't do too well with being hated. I've only not gotten along with people a handful of times in my life, and it led to many sleepless nights. And lest you think it's a coincidence I posted this on a Friday, it's not. I figure I should give you guys the weekend to calm down after hearing such news.

    Thanks! It's hard to remember sometimes that something isn't really "you" when everyone else is loving it, you know?

    Gregg forbade me to wear animal prints or purchase faux fur long ago :)

    I hate animal print (faux or not) too. And I forgot to write this earlier on today's post but I hated carbonation growing up too (still do in fact). It burns? Why do people like drinking things that burn? Baffling. :)

    LOL, you're the only person besides me I have found that feels that way!
