The law of leopard

Beware the big cat, it’s easy to get caught up in its beauty and lose your perspective when it come to leopard print.

Yes we agree, on a twenty something ingenue, tripping done the streets of Paris with an air of Gitane about her, a leopard print coat can look effortlessly cool. On a forty something mother, whose locks are less ombre and more ‘missed my hair appointment because something came up with the kids/husband/work/home………..and in any case when did ombre become 3 inches of grey roots’ not so cool. We think you get the picture!

Unless you are in fact Emmanuelle Alt, she who can wear anything, we strongly recommend that you keep your leopard to accessories. A well placed leopard print accessory will still give your outfit that edge of rock n roll cool without spilling over into 1970s barmaid territory.
