Understated Animal Print - by Susan Street, Susanafter60

Note from Pauline Durban, founder of cabotparticlematters - WOW, Susan posted this review on her blog and they just flew off the shelves. Within 24 hours we sold out of many sizes. She looks amazing and her loyal following loved what she did with this top. You will too!

Over to Susan...

Many have asked, “Why do you not wear prints?” I do sometimes wear a stripe, polka dot, or animal print if the colors are cool and the pattern not very bold.

My new top from cabotparticlematters is an excellent choice. (A V-neck version is here.) I thought you might enjoy seeing some of the ways I have worn it.

I wear the tops with slim-fitting straight-leg pants and short boots to give me a long, lean base. From there, I can add any third piece

I want without looking too bulky.

The soft tops are perfect for wearing under a jacket or sweater.
(I am wearing a size medium, and I am 5’6″ tall.
My shape is an inverted triangle.)


The faux suede moto jacket is old from Express (similar here)
The bag and the slim-fitting black pants are both from T.J.Maxx.

The hook belt is old from Chico’s. The long gray and black
vest is from Talbot’s here.

The long blue cardigan is from Talbot’s last year.
The long gray cashmere cardigan below is old from J.Jill.
I have several of these long cardigans
and wear them with a cabotparticlematters top very often.
It is my favorite relaxing at home look.

A well-planned wardrobe of versatile basics allows for effortless dressing. When we dress in layers,
it’s wise to start with slim-fitting soft pieces
to avoid looking too bulky.
My goal is to share my style and what I’ve learned so that you can get ideas for creating a stellar wardrobe that works for you.

The elements of my looks are rarely new, so I share highlighted links to similar current items.
