Yay, it’s Tuesday and I’m done taking my certification exam!! I’m not sure how I did; it was 4 hours and was a tough exam. I’m work in credit, and there was a lot of legal terminology and procedures on the exam. Half of the exam was involving things that I don’t do in my current position, but I tried my best. Either way, it’s over for now, and grad school doesn’t start back for 1 month, woohoo! I still can’t believe August is only a couple of days ago. Where has this summer (year) gone?! We had 3 days last week that have been in the lower 80’s. It has been a strange year temperature wise. I got out yesterday to pump my gas and almost thought it was fall with the way it felt outside. It’s makes for some nice nights out on a patio at a restaurant or a screened in patio.Thank you so much for stopping by the Trend Spin Linkup with The Fashion Canvas and myself! First of all, I want to thank everyone who has been linking up. I appreciate it so, so much and also respond back to every person via email who is a reply commenter (make sure you are by doing this.) If you are set up as a no-reply commenter, you don’t get any of my responses delivered to you. = ( If you linkup today, I would absolutely love for you to leave me a comment so I can thank you for stopping by! = ) Today’s trend is animal print! I just recently got my animal print clutch, and sadly it is the only item I have that is animal print! Sad, I know! I did wear an elephant bracelet; does that count? Show us how you wear it – a pair of flats, a bow in your hair, a bow print dress or an entire outfit. It doesn’t matter what clothing item it is or where it’s from; we’d love to see it. Here are our top 2 bow looks from last week!

I'm also in awe that it's almost August. This year has flown by. I'm sure you did great on the exam! I need to get some animal print in my wardrobe. I have NONE. Crazy, right?!
Thanks for the link up! Loving the long necklace you're wearing – I've been kind of obsessed with long necklaces lately! And clutches are such a nice way to add animal print to a look! Looking great Laura! 🙂

I find it almost impossible to believe that the only animal print you own is that leopard clutch (which is adorable!) Thanks for the link up. 🙂
I love animal print and you look gorgeous
You look gorgeous as always! I don't have a lot of animal print either, too funny! And I have even LESS metallic, I better start planning now! Congrats on being done with your certification exam!! Woohoo!
Adorable! Love how your outfit is still summery with the leopard print clutch. I really want a leopard clutch! Congrats finishing your exam. I can't believe it is almost time for school to go back. Yuck!

I love that clutch! Sometimes all you need is just a touch of animal print. You look fantastic!
If I could only have 1 animal print item, I think that clutch would work just perfectly- I love it's pattern and that it folds. And I am obsessed with your elephant bracelet- so adorable, I'm prettyyyy sure I need it!
I'll be linking up tomorrow- love this week's looks so far!!

I don't think I own ANY animal print. Is that weird? I don't hate animal print, I've just never found anything that's drawn me to it I guess.
I love that you decided to go with little animal print accents! Loving that clutch Laura.

Animal Print is always in & timeless in my opinion. Love your Blouse & Clutch. I also did an Animal Print Clutch today (plus Skirt).
Love that clutch! I can't believe it's your only animal print! Thanks for hosting the linkup!
Thanks for hosting this linkup! I have a clutch too in leopard!

I really like that clutch!! I've never been an animal print llover, but this year there's so much to choose from, that I've purchased quite a few things this year.
Have some posts on my blog with animal print.

I love your look the best because it has just the right touch of leopard 🙂 I'm not the biggest fan of animal prints -hence why I didn't link up today 🙁 -but I love just a little accessory of them! That clutch is so cute and I'm crushing on that skirt!!

Hey Laura, I am also not as equipped for animal print day, however I think just a touch looks best! In which case your purse is spot on! Haha- get it- spot on! Okay, I'll go now. 😉
