I think if the rest is neutral it's perfect even for the non-crazy cat lady person.

You said "too" matchy....does that mean you like to match but don't want to go overboard?

Personally I am loving animal print at the moment, and prefer to wear one item so it really 'pops'. Having said this I recently wore an animal print tunic with matching shoes! I guess it depends on the actual outfit, so maybe pics would be in order here.

All of that being said, I think it's ultimately in how you style the items e.g. having a small portion of the shoe in view under a pant vs. having it totally exposed (what MNsara said!), as well as a clutch versus a cross-body bag. Can you post a pic? MNsara on "Too much of a good thing?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-much-of-a-good-thing#post-764795 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 17:57:10 +0000 MNsara 764795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ It depends - are they exact matches and do you like matching? If they're different from each other, that's probably easiest and more on trend. I began using more than a single animal print thing when pattern mixing really took hold, BUT I usually keep them in small doses if there's more than one, i.e. belt and scarf, or shoes and belt. If the whole shoe is exposed, that's more leopard than a peek of toes from under trousers.

Some of us like to be matchy matchy, so just depends on your preference I think. trinity on "Too much of a good thing?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/too-much-of-a-good-thing#post-764779 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 17:46:53 +0000 trinity 764779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Is it too much to wear leopard print pumps and carry a leopard print clutch? I don't want to look too matchy matchy!
