WIW: I submit this proves leopard is a neutral

I am feeling lousy today (OMG somehow I managed to come down with shingles -- if you're old enough go out and get vaccinated NOW!) so this fuzzy cozy J Crew Factory sweater was just the ticket. And I couldn't resist adding the leopard shoes and scarf because why not when all I do is sit in my office by myself all day? I didn't get to my ironing so I picked a neutral mask instead of a matching one, and the sunglasses are what was close at hand when I took the pic -- I switched to tortoiseshell before I left the house.

What say you? Have I proven that leopard really is a neutral?

Yes!
I’m hoping so, anyway. It’s versatile for sure.

Love it. You do a complement like nobody's business.

And...OMG, you have my sympathy on the shingles. I had them at the beginning of last year and it was AWFUL. I did an off-topic thread about it that has lots of good advice from forum members, if you're in need of it. I will be asking for the immunization the minute I turn 50, because I never want that again.

Gah! I had shingles on my face (!) December 2017. Got on anti viral meds in time so it didn’t get into my eye. Got the vaccine (Shingrix) as soon as I was eligible and the booster one month later.

I can’t believe you are dressed up, MsMary! I was prostrate for a month. Weak as a kitten. Take care!

Oh, no! I'm so sorry! Shingles are awful. (((HUGS))

I'm 50 and can get the vaccine. And you, Mary? Can you get it post Shingles?

Of course, leopard is your neutral, and you look KILLER fab

It totally works for you- fab! Sorry to hear about health problem- would never guessed it - you look fierce!

Shingles are awful. A first cousin got some sort of painful disorder from them encircling his body and still suffers from it many years later.

MsMary

Thanks, everybody! Strangely I got my flu shot and a couple of other vaccines a few months ago but they didn't offer me the shingles shot and I didn't think to ask for it. Crazy. But yes I can get it in a month or two to prevent a recurrence. And at least I don't have multiple spider bites, which is what I spent the last week thinking I had! LOL

I actually completely agree. Maybe all animal print is a neutral?

madeline

Yes-leopard is certainly a neutral!
I love the way the bright citron works with the brown in the leopard print.
You look great.
Sorry about the shingles. Hope you are better soon.

kellygirl

Absolutely a neutral. Sorry to hear about the shingles! They sound awful--every time I hear about it I remember to look into getting the vaccine...and then promptly forget. Maybe after I get the Covid one since the questionnaire asks about recent vaccinations... Wishing you a speedy recovery. YLF despite the shingles! Hugs to you!

Shingles is the Worst :/ Hope you're over it soon! And yes, leopard is a neutral!

Kate

So sorry to hear about the shingles, MsMary. Hope your case is mild.

I received my first Covid shot today, and was told not to get any further vaccinations until 25 days after my second Covid shot.

Echo

I am so sorry about the shingles. My mum had them last year on her face/scalp, and she needed meds to prevent things from getting into her eyes, too. I just turned that magic number and am now eligible for the shot, but teachers are supposed to be able to get vaccinated for covid soon, and my doctor recommended not having the shingles shot until I had the covid shot because they don't recommend having another shot within 14 days of the covid vaccination. I didn't want that delayed if I can get in soon.

And I am convinced that you can make ANYTHING a neutral! You look amazing, and leopard is so versatile that it definitely can be a neutral.

Bijou

Love your outfit and how you have pulled together a fabulous and comfy look whilst having shingles. I hope you get better ASAP. Leopard is one of my favourite neutrals too.

Jaime

Definitely a neutral especially against that brilliant yellow. But feel as good as you look soon!

Leopard is definitely a neutral. You proved it.

rachylou

Ack! I’m sorry! You look so chipper tho!

Gigi

A picture is worth a thousand words! The leopard print really grounds this look.

Sorry to hear about the shingles.
