I've always hated animal print, especially on a woman over fifty, picture it bingo wings with the leopard blouse.
I needed a new dress for a rare girls (below 50 yrs old but on the wrong side of 45) night out. Tried on a lovely (Gracia recommended) party dress. The body looked good but the face, OK 10-15 years ago I would have bought it. Bought a classy leopard print shift dress, sleeveless, bit more above the knee than I would prefer but with the black tights, high boots and hoops (in ears for a contempary look) I reckon I can pull it off.
It looks classy but then I will end up in a club full of 20 year olds. I could have gone for the tight trouser, black vest and accessories and blended in but I want to look my age (47) but not frumpy.
