A Good Eye For Cacti: ootd

Art Print, Watch, Coaster Set available on etsy.com

For the last few months it seems that everywhere I look cactus prints keep popping up. I've never been a fan of cactus anything, probably because I once loved those adorable mini cactus arrangements, begged my mom to buy me one, within five minutes of bringing it home I was bleeding and one year and a thousand drops of blood later, I let it die of neglect. But, maybe it's not just that this plant has hurt me so many times, maybe I just saw this style over used in every retro kitschy home I've ever been in and burned out on it.

Regardless of its origin, I'm not a fashion fan of our friend (or mortal enemy) the cactus. Buuuuuut, as with so many things, if I see it enough times I get curious enough to try it. So, when I was picking out my Mermaid Top from a few posts ago, I noticed a cactus top. I was pleased enough with the fit of the blouse that I went back and decided to give this print a try. OK, I gotta say, it's pretty cute with a yellow sweater or jacket, and for only $11 I'm glad I tried it.

No review for this top; it's the same fit, fabric and price as the mermaid top, just a different print. If you'd like to read that review, click here. In the mean time, here are some other cactus things I dig:
