Style Over 50: Revved on Reptile Belts and Scarves

I got this picture message from my husband this weekend. He bumped into this handsome fellow (madame?) while communing with Nature. I had to laugh; I hadn't told my husband I was blogging about reptile prints in a big way lately. This is the fourth (and final, I promise) installment of my animal prints for women over 50. In case you're just tuning in, I've covered animal tops, shoes and handbags already. This post focuses on online belts and scarves. If you've been on the fence about animal prints, belts and scarves are a great way to try this fun trend.

But before I start in with the belts and scarves, I had to share these Nine West® Zebra Temple Sunglasses (was $40, now $28) with you. Aren't they fabulous!?! They make me want to grab a head scarf and hop into a convertible for a ride in the countryside.

SNAKES ON A BELT
Here's a sample of the online animal print belts. I'm loving all the thin reptile belts.

SCARVES
This weekend turned chilly and I pulled all my scarves out of storage. I've worn a long scarf everyday for the past 4 days. A long, thin scarf gives the illusion of a little extra length and thinness to your silhouette. It may only make a slight difference, but I'll take it.
