5 Leopard Favorites

Leopard seems to be a trend that is NOT going away! Thank goodness! So that means to stock up on staples that will last a while in your closet. I love leopard for the pure fact that it makes every outfit fun!!! With a capsule wardrobe, you need a wardrobe with essential items that will not go out of style. Here are my 5 favorite leopard pieces for the winter season!

1. The Leopard Cardigan

Offered through Amazon Prime and under $30. Also, a ton of color options for every occasion. 

2. The Leopard Vest

Offered through Gameday Couture and it's 50% off right now - code NEWYEAR - making it under $20!!!

3. The Long Leopard Skirt

I love this Amazon skirt because it has a draw string which is perfect for us mamas who fluctuate after eating tacos, being pregnant, postpartum, or being just perfectly normal. :)

4. The Leopard Pant

I love these Leopard Pants from Nasty Gal because you can dress it up or down and they are super comfy! Perfect look for any occasion. 

5. The Leopard Purse

This bag is great to have in your collection! It's cute & trendy with a mix of leopard print faux fur and leather from LuLus! It even comes with the wrist & shoulder straps to make it the right length for every outfit!!

Have fun wearing Leopard AGAIN this year! Don't get rid of your capsule items, EVER!! Trends always come back around!! ;)

Korean Fashion Trends

Korean fashion is noticeably different than what I am used to. They don't show their shoulders for one thing and I love tank tops! So hard to get used to especially in the extremely hot summer. They are simple and classic. They wear a lot of neutral colors - black, white, tans/browns - and I love super bright colors. They wear statement shirts that don't translate perfectly into English or I would never think to rock it out in public, but they are hilariously awesome! Check these out...

Then they match these wild tops with super long skirts, most are pleated as well. They wear them in the winter and layer up with fleece leggings and hose underneath with heeled ankle boots.

Ice Skating in Daegu!

Did you know Daegu has just as much to do in the cold months as it does in the summer? One of my favorite spots is by the river is Shincheon Ice Rink. Take the Yellow Line 3 on the monorail to Daebonggyo right by Debec Mall. This awesome rink opens December 9th until January 28th from 10am daily until 8pm on weekdays and 9pm on the weekend.

The rink is technically FREE if you have skates. If not, you only pay 1,000KRW for an hour sled or skate rental and 3,000KRW for all day. They do take credit card as well. This is such an awesome deal, right? 

As soon as you walk inside, you will see the cafe to the right and a sitting area to the left. There are photo spots as well that are holiday themed!

There are breaks in the day where the staff cleans the ice. Make sure to plan accordingly upon arrival. The great news is you can sit in the super cozy area and enjoy the cafe treats while you wait. 

Once you are ready, you take your receipt and get your skates. Don't forget - it's in Korean sizes. For example, I wear a size 8 so a size 250 was perfect for me. Then you get your helmet and you can rent a locker to store your items for only 500KRW. 

Once you are geared up, go out on the ice and have a blast! Even if it's for an hour or all day, you are going to have so much fun. The view on the river, the joy of feeling like a kid again is all worth a day on Shincheon Ice Rink. ENJOY!!!

Kim Gwangseok - gil Street

Kim Gwangseok was an influential and extremely popular South Korean folk rock singer. The street he used to live on is now used as historical site filled with beautiful murals and statues. You can even get a stamp book located near the information area and collect stamps throughout the street. 

The street is filled with beautiful colors and interactive murals, which was so fun!

I loved the guitars that were wonderfully placed as seats, as statues, and to take fun photos with. 

There is even a cute tunnel that you can write your wishes on a guitar and hang it up!

Have fun exploring all of the neat cafes around the street as well!

I had a great time exploring this area and I hope you check it out when you are Daegu. Enjoy!
