Leopard Virgin

Fact - I have never owned a leopard printed anything in my life.
That is, until now.
They have sent me this sheer leopard shirt from Forever 21 and I found myself subtly pleased. I guess I have always wondered if I could carry off leopard at all whilst sometimes admiring these spectacular leopard-wearing-ladies out there who does it at ease. I realize there is also an element of negative association because as I am immediately reminded of someone I worked with as soon as I saw myself in the mirror. To ease into it I wore it under the owl top in the "SE18 Artillery Place" post, with just the collar showing and I quite liked that; but the company needed it to be worn on its own to count. So here goes. Hands up for leather overkill. I grabbed the jacket too quickly as I was rushing to one of my jobs and didn't realize what I have done until I saw these pictures. I think it is time to think about investing in a full length mirror on my front door...at least it wasn't the leopard's fault...

The jacket in crime is from Topshop, Leopard shirt from Forever 21, Black Leather Cut-Out Collar from Hong Kong, H&M's Dipped Hem Skirt in faux-leather, Balenciaga's Bag, and River Island's Boots.
