Do or don't: Leopard print

For some reason, I've never really liked leopard prints (too Mrs. Robinson), but this rosy-cheeked girl might change my mind. Doesn't she look pretty?

    She looks amazing. I am being converted to leopard prints in moderation.

  2. I agree about leopard prints, and most animal prints... I'm not a great fan. But she looks really good! I'm loving her leather jacket... xx

  4. I love leopard print slingback heels, but that's about it. I think leopard print shirts and leggings and such look cheap. (But that girl could wear a burlap sack and look lovely.)

    of course she could. Her name is Hannah Davis, she is a model. You have most likely seen her in Ralph Lauren e-commerce and even some victorias secret.

  6. Ha, I couldn't agree more but she's totally rockin' it! I think that rad men's watch and slouchy tote have a little something to do with it. (I'm a sucker for both!)

  9. i was never really into them either until last week at the YSL sample sale when i found the BEST leopard print shirt. i have worn it twice since.

  10. I don't really like her outfit at all, but I'm blinded by her beauty, so it really doesn't matter what she's wearing!

  11. OK. I must address this Anon personne above. I was just leaving a cat comment on zee bun but now I'm steamed.

    Just because someone writes/paints about (parts) of their life does not mean they cannot place boundaries on their personal narrative. They can entertain questions publicly or privately as they wish. It's a very difficult position to place oneself in, but there it is. Civility would call for some restraint on a subject that might not be welcome here. And no, I do not know a thing about it & do not know Jo personally. But I well know what this might be like (maybe).

    Now. Matter at hand. Cat/animal prints.

    Yes, she looks cute. The older you are, the more careful you have to be (alas, in so much). I have a bag with a small print in it, a ribbon, accent here & there. And one fabulous black leather (consignment shop, PETA-peeps) jacket & the lining in it is (fake!) leopard. I nearly freaked out when a friend begged to buy it for me (where is he now??) because of the print & it's fuzzyish as it's cold weather jacket. It was needless worry. Looks great.

    Off on chocolate run.

  18. She looks great! The leopard print reminds me of Rachel Comey leopard retractors dress at www.petuliasfolly.com!

  19. what a great outfit! leopard print has always been the one fashion-themed difference between my best friend and myself... I love it and she HATES (insert gag noise) it. I do have to admit I feel a little self conscious when I wear it however ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  20. She is doin it! I also feel a little weird wearing it for some reason.

    ReplyDelete
  21. I think the broken in boyfriend jeans helps out a lot...

    ReplyDelete
  22. I like the jacket, top and tote, but I hate the jeans. I think it would look much nicer with a darker, straighter legged jean.

    ReplyDelete
  23. She pulls it off without looking cheap, I think that that is usually the issue!

    ReplyDelete
  24. i love the styling of this. so relaxed, it makes the leopard look refreshingly chic. i also like this particular leopard print. quite unexpected.

    ReplyDelete
  25. i like the large scale print! very unique.

    ReplyDelete
  26. I agree about the lepord prints! I thought i was the only one who didn't like looking like an animal carcass -
    except sometimes cute on ballet flats, no?

    ReplyDelete
  27. i think the large size of the pattern as well as the bagginess of the shirt help quite a bit. i'd never really considered leopard print, either!

    ReplyDelete
  28. She is beautiful. I love leopard print too! I love adding the trend in shoes. It makes an outfit playful. Very fun!

  29. if it wasn't 35o and 99% humidity i would be wearing a leopard print vest and leather jacket for sure.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Coo-coo-ca-choo! I love it.

    Cheers.

  31. Amazing! I wonder who makes the leopard print top? I love that it's oversized print, which makes it more interesting and less "printy"

    ReplyDelete
  32. I love a bit of animal print, when worn correctly..and this is the way to wear it! Only one piece of clothing or accessories..only one! The tough biker jacket and boyfriend jeans make this outfit, I love it

    ReplyDelete
  33. Oy! Careful what you say about Mrs. Robinson! ;)

    ReplyDelete
  34. This is wonderful. Effortless, right? I do LOVE leopard. I have it dabbled in throughout my life. And love the Mrs. Robbinson reference...sign me up! Is that just horrible? I'm going to go tease my hair now and find a young man to seduce. Great pic! xoxo

  35. I think this rosy-cheeked girl would look good in anything!

  36. I've always been such a sucker for leopard and that lovely top paired with the killer jacket is just another reason why!

    ReplyDelete
