A Lil Leo


Pretty kitty!  I want to transcend reality/abandon survival instinct and go snuggle with it.  In lieu of making a furry friend (or becoming a furry’s feast) I will covet leopard prints. 

Hard stop. 

When using leopard, proceed with caution.  Less is more, dear friends.  The cat can pull it off.  Everyone else needs to practice stylistic discretion.

Leopard looks fabulous as an accent; one accessory can instantly make an outfit.  And, if you do want to go a little bolder (ie: leopard garment) try to make less than 25 percent of your total outfit.  Take a cue from the uber cool gals below, a little goes a long way.
