Leopard Prints

I have a favorite leopard print coat that I wear all the time. Its vintage '60s Bill Blass for Bond Street. Its a printed cotton canvas fabric. Its anything but trailer trash...on me, its quite glam.

When leopard print goes bad!

I love leopard print, but it needs to be done in moderation:

Ok, so i wasn't a fan of leopard print until quite recently. When I saw a photo of Kate moss wearing all black with a leopard print purse. I wanted to put the photo up, but I lost it in the bottomless pit of my computer memory. If anyone finds it.. It would be awsome to have it again. *hint hint* I also LOVE it with the whole punk/anarchist look. Mind you, I'm still not a huge fan... So I can only deal with one piece of it at a time.. A purse, a shirt peeking from beneath a sweater/coat, some shoes.... etc, etc...
 
I :heart: leopard print! It is never trailer trash if you wear it in moderation with attitude a la Gwen and Kate.

I used to HATE animal prints, and particularly leopard. But, I don't anymore. I'm coming around. It's all Gwen's fault, really. I love her pagelles. And, I really like this hoodie:shock:

I never ever expected to like anything leopard, ever.

I know what you mean!
I have a leopard print purse, a bracelet, hair pins, a wallet, a tank-top... and even a bra :ninja: :lol:
I love it, if the person can pull it off it looks pretty cool.

^ Yes! ^_^

Although I see it done badly more often that the right way.... Animal print is HUGE for F/W 06.07, especially leopard print in unconventional colors like red, purple.... Not sure if I am liking that version of it.... will stick to the classic color I think...!
 
yeah, the classic colour is the best! although black and white can be nice too, depending on what it is...

and you've mentioned the whole "punk" and "underground" scene a few pages before, certainly that's what's gotten me into it as well! :lol:
Mostly I go to 'underground' clubs, and you can't help but be inspired by the variety of leopard print looks you see! lol
there are some great underground stores here in Sao Paulo with sooo many cute leopard print things, very cool stuff, I go crazy! Yeah, became quite addicted. :P
 
D'oh! Sorry about the credits.

Also like the cardigan...it's not the obvious leopard print, I think it's nice.

For leopard print, I think it is essential that you have that certain 'feel' to your style, and you must wear your clothes very confidently. Otherwise it can look very awkward and/or tacky.
But I do love it nontheless. Thank you for all the pictures! :heart:
 
I'm a big fan of these Manolos

both photos from neimanmarcus.com

I think when animal print is done right it looks fantastic...I would wear these with a simple shift dress.:heart:
 
^ Animal print footwear is not my style.. I don't like the elegant ladylike version of leopard print.... I like when it's laid back and casual....
 
^_^
I think this top is very cute

I love leopard prints! Last week I saw this great short jacket (fake fur) in a vintage store but didn't buy it.. thought it would be a little over the top somehow.. ^_^ And now I can't stop thinking about it! :(
Thank God I still have my cute leopard print scarf.. B)
