how to wear leopard print?

5 Dec

Call it tacky, call it brash, but sometimes there’s just nothing that beats a good healthy dose of leopard print.

Leopard print can most definitely be classy, elegant and tasteful too…just make sure you’re wearing the right size and not 2 sizes too small maybe? That does tend to help…

A leopard print dress can sometimes be all you need to stand out without showing even the tiniest bit of skin.

Wear an all black ensemble with some striking leopard print shoes? Boom, you just hit jackpot!

For those amongst us that are relatively new and maybe not yet that comfortable with the fierce big cat, how about some accessories that you could potentially even take off or kind of hide during the night/ day should you suddenly feel like it’s too much? A leopard print scarf or even a leopard print bag are perfect options! Given that the bag is a leopard print clutch and you have a bigger (preferably black leather bag) one you could stick it into…

And yes, this next one is something I haven’t even tried yet – leopard print nails! I’ve been known to publicly show my love of leopard in everything from bags, jewellery and even leopard print leggings and I’ve also been known to never shy away from some crazy nails (currently rocking Chanel’s Peridot shade for weeks – such a perfect colour for Christmas?!) – but I just haven’t found someone who can do this for me dammit – the hunt for the ultimate nail artist in North London continues – let me know if you know anyone you can reccommend!

Style Icon – Gwen Stefani – she does it again…

4 Dec

If you know me, you’ll know I absolutely love love love Gwen Stefani. Having seen her live 4 times, both with and without No Doubt (though to be entirely honest, I prefer with No Doubt) – I have seen first-hand how much insane energy and charisma this woman has, she has a presence on stage that is just fierce, absolutely fierce!

Here Gwen pulls off (perfectly) a gorgeously simple classic black and white trouser look – on anyone else it would look boring, but on Gwen it looks sexy and stylish:
