Style Statements - Animal Print and Vintage Muffs

1951
How do you take a simple gray wool suit into the stratosphere?  Add some animal print in your accessories!  Just the hint of print in the scarf she has tucked inside the jacket neckline makes the suit more interesting.  Add an animal print handbag and you've tied it all together.  I wonder what her shoes look like?  They could be animal print, but it's more likely they are gray or black.

Muffs like this one were popular from the 30s to the 50s.  They are a great way to keep your hands warm when the winter wind blows.  Most have hidden zipper pockets so you can carry your I.D., some money and your lipstick.  I'll bet you could even fit your cellphone in there.  And who needs more than that when you want to make a style statement?  We've got a couple of muffs available at Couture Allure right now.  Check them out!
