Too much leopard?

Karie

I've been wanting to wear these leopard print booties since I got them, and they finally fit my post-surgery foot. Is it too much leopard with the top too? Sorry for the weird squint on my face, I guess the flash got me.

Booties - Corso Como leopard print
Moto - Calvin Klein
Jeans - J.Crew Matchstick

No such thing as too much leopard!

I like how the scale of the prints is different, and I think it totally works! I do so love white with cognac!!

I third that. I have seen many successful outfits with multiple animal prints and you got it right. Agree that varying the scale helps too.

Another who thinks there's no such thing as too much leopard. To wear two leopard prints at once, I think they either have to match perfectly or be intentionally different. These look intentionally different to my eye, so it works.

What leopard? All I see is that absolutely fabulous red moto!

I live in the Deep South, so believe me when I say, there IS such a thing as too much leopard. Really and truly.

But not here. You look absolutely, perfectly divine and polished in this outfit The leopard print bookends your hair and eyes, and the jacket + leopard sort of tone one another, so that my eyes go right to your lovely face.

But truly, you look great Karie! Not too much at all.

I'm so glad it's not too much because I wore it out of the house (I'm wearing it now)! And LBD I'm blushing - you must have been blinded by my camera's flash too

I think this works just fine (love that jacket & top!). But I'm not a fan of matchy-matchy and think booties in a different color way (black or tan or even something totally different) would be awesome imo. Still, i love this outfit and you have inspired me to pair my burgundy faux leather jacket with my leopard print skirt!!

I have to second LBD - here in FL (at the last hockey game actually) we saw what was definitely way too much leopard on one lady. http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....n-on-style But this is not that. You look great!

They are different in scale Karie so it's perfectly fine.

Thanks, Shevia - I just got my hair cut and colored yesterday, and I am trying desperately to style it like the hairdresser does - I always have a hard time with that!

I love leopard prints. They are far apart enough I think it's fine.

This totally works to my eye and I think you look great, Karie! I wasn't sure what to expect from "too much leopard" in your post title, but I have to say I really love this! Those booties are awesome. Especially adore that gorgeous moto paired with the white jeans on you...I'm so loving the "freedom" of white jeans in white this year thanks to YLF!
