STYLISH LEOPARD

SATURDAY - PART 1

I was walking by Le Chateau the other day when I noticed splashes of leopard all over their displays and clothing, it was a definite sign that leopard was back...but did it ever leave?

Personally I love the look of a leopard coat, but I've never had the confidence to wear such a bold item. I have a leopard cardigan, that's quite bright which means I have to be in an interesting mood to have it on.

This is my favorite trend when it comes to leopard, because it gives you that subtle touch. Celebs have gone gaga for the Louis Vuitton version.

I actually really like the look of the leggings, I'd be more keen to wearing them, than the tights.
Not anyone can pull off Christina Milian's look, I think it's much more fashion friendly on Amanda Bynes.

These can range from good to bad, if your getting a leopard dress make sure it's simple and that it fits you perfectly. My ultimate favorite is the one Jordin Spark's has on in the first picture, the black breaks up the look perfectly.

I have a pair of flats at home that I adore, unfortunately now it's winter and I've had to retire them. I love how easy it is to jazz up a boring outfit with a pair of spotted shoes.

I love how you can mix these bags with other prints and pull it off. I especially like the look of it in the bottom three picture set.

CELEB STYLE: LEOPARD

I think she is the Queen of Leopard, she just needs a crown full of princess cut diamonds. I would go as far to say that she's helped bring the trend along to what it is now. Especially with outerwear.

I've noticed that Britney has had some of her worst moments in or near leopard. Interesting...
If Kate Moss is the queen then Sienna is the Princess of leopard.

She's emerged wearing quite a lot of leopard lately, frankly I probably should have made another set of pictures for her, but you get the idea. She wears it quite interestingly.

Meow! Kylie would not be Kylie without a little animal print. How adorable is she in the first picture?!
Gwen loves it, she incorporated so much leopard and animal prints in her collections for L.A.M.B. it's become part of the whole look of the label. How can we forget that first dress? Probably one of the best leopard dresses ever.

Mischa looks like such a pimp in that last picture. I'm amazed, but impressed that she managed to pull the look off in the second picture without looking trashy.

Nicole stepped out last week in a really cute leopard , ever since I've been obsessed with getting one similar. I love how, it's not too flashy, but still fun.

She clearly loves leopard, but I don't think it suits her as well as some of the others.

Queen of the leopard bags?

I think the dress in the middle picture is a little scary, she needs to give that back to Sharon Stone.

Speaking of scary, Mel B has always had a fondness for animal prints. I guess it was part of her persona in The Spice Girls.

I love this Rebecca Taylor cardigan on her, I'm really tempted to buy it.

I think she looks cool in leopard and animal prints in general it seems to go with her whole image. I don't know why she doesn't wear it more often.

Liv really loves that little leopard bag, she's hardly seen without it. It's one of my favorits that I've seen.
Jordin looks absolutely amazing in these prints it's her 'color'.

I really don't have much to say about her except that the bouffant she's sporting in the first picture is terrible.

Hmm I saw these leopard tights at the other day at the store the other day. I found myself oohing and ahhing over them, I just couldn't decide. Finally I left them, because I couldn't convince myself that I would wear them. It's diffuclt to be experimental like this in the winter.

REPEAT OFFENDER
There are many more I could throw in the in the mix, but I have to say I don't know what Brook Hogan was thinking when she wore that dress.

Leopard never left for me, that's for sure. Leopard, red and black -- that's all you need for a good wardrobe :-)

The high-waist cuts really instils an elegant twist of "SEXYness" on Amanda Bynes and Gwen Stefani . . . AND such a great performance whereas this "stylish exercice" can be perilous !!!

à Bientôt, Antoine

Oooh, one of your epic posts!

I love the leopard but I have to say I had no idea how much of it is out there - or at least being worn by celebrities.

How many leopard gowns does Lisa Rinna own???
