The Awards season is in full-swing providing ample opportunities for our favorite celebrities to look their best or look like a mess on the Red Carpet.
One of the biggest minefields to navigate in the fashion world for women is the age-limit on certain fashion trends. A hemline that’s too short, a color that’s too neon and/or a animal print with too much bite can make any ‘woman of a certain age’ look ‘retro’ and not refined. Although fashion designer, Betsy Johnson has no problem performing cartwheel in a tutu after the age of 60, that doesn’t mean the rest of the baby boomer generation is ready, willing or able to caught dead shopping next to her in a Forever 21 store.

Leopard print is considered a “neutral,” so it’s a great base of or addition to all types of outfits. Another great thing about leopard print is that you can opt to wear as much (a dress) or as little (a scarf) as you’d like. But you must make sure you’re wearing it just right since leopard print is ‘sexy’, you don’t need to go over-the-top by wearing a tight, skin-bearing, short dress. Let the print do the work.
