    And here you are! Blogging about animal prints! Wow... Great minds... ;)
    Love your post and adore those Charlotte Olympia Dolly leather platform pumps. I wouldn't wear prints (just not me... and I do have a scary example in mind... every time I think of that woman I feel dizzy... ), but I do love the footwear.

    Have a great day, darling!

  37. Ahh I love Leopard print, such a versatile pattern, it's so trendy and timeless, and gives a bit of spark to any outfit. It looks really edgy and modern but there is that classic 80's vibe to it xx

  40. So gorgeous! Especially when paired with metallics.

    Love that animal prints are so vintage and modern at the same time, which I suppose makes them timeless.

  42. It cracks me up that animal prints and red lipstick are so "in" this second. I feel like a broken clock that's right twice a day. I was wearing them before, when everyone thought they were tacky, and I'll be wearing them after, when everyone thinks they are tacky.

    ReplyDelete
  43. I'm not really a leopard girl, but I love snakeskin!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  46. I was just watching Factory Girl and thinking that I just love how well Edie Sedgwick pulls off leopard print. I'm actually quite fond of the ankle boots you've posted.

    ReplyDelete
  47. I could really go for a pair of leopard print booties, they seem like they'd be so fun to play around with!

  65. Ah! YES! I love leopard and zebra prints.

    The only unfortunate thing is that they can make or break you but other than that they can add so much color and texture to every outfit.

    I'm guessing you like your prints?

    ReplyDelete
