Wearing black leather trousers, with leopard print, is such an "over 40" cliché isn't it?
We get to that "certain age" and start dressing like an aged rocker.
So predictable.
Well, guess what?
One of the pleasures of being an over 40 woman is the freedom to wear what the hell we want!
We are no longer shackled with the worry of what other people might think.
Or, confused as to who we are, or where we are going.
{Although I'm still not sure what I want to be when I grow up!}
We know our limitations.
We accept our flaws.
We are well aware of those "age-appropriate" style rules, and we may (or may not) stick to some of them...sometimes.
However, when it comes to fashion, we know exactly how to have fun, and nothing is quite as much fun as a splash of leopard print!
Especially when paired with some leather.
Whatever floats your (leather) boat will work beautifully... a jacket, a dress, a sexy pencil skirt or some comfy leggings.
I don't care if it's a cliché.
Leather and leopard... I love it!
{See another cliché HERE... this time a "blogger" one}
Faux leather leggings (last spotted here and here) are simple to style, and surprisingly warm!
(Essential in this cold weather)
I paired these leather-look leggings with a bronze-coloured tunic top, and a cosy sleeveless cardigan.
This cardigan is big and chunky... just the way I like it on a cold day.
{You can see my breath in this shot!}
The best part of this outfit (for me) are my leopard boots.
I love these little boots.
Funky but practical.
A little bit rock chic.
A little bit cowgirl.
A whole lot of fun!
Fun earrings, a cute beret and a red lip finished things off nicely.
{See this beret styled here and here}
Are you happy to wear a Cliché from time to time?
Do you mix leather and leopard?
What is your idea of a FUN outfit?
Please share your thoughts in the comments.
I love hearing from you.
