When are you too old for leopard print?

I say wear what you like - it's how you feel in it. Wish I could still wear mini-skirts (great legs) but carry a lot bit too much weight also can no longer wear "skyscraper" heels - flats only for me now

In my teens fake croc was in & I had lots, coat, belts, shoes. If I like something I wear it - too old to care very much, DD would tell me if she hated it , Also used to wear fake fur jackets. I have a leopard print top which I love

Luckgirl its far too late for me! Obviously I have embraced my inner commoner. Good.

I have been completely indoctrinated by my mum who always said that leopard print was 'common' and it always brings Bet Lynch to mind for me. I think at 68 I should get over it!

You are always too old for leopard print - just do not go there.

You re too old once you re dead! I love fake animal prints, but never more than one at a time! A wee touch is smart!

I don't think my silly slippers are ladylike - but I like them!

Lynda - wear what YOU like and don't worry about what others think. As long as you don't look like Bet Lynch it's fine.

Love what Jane10 and pen50 are wearing.

I have a few leopard print scarves which are very striking with plain colour clothes but wouldn't hesitate to buy a dress or top in leopard print if I saw something I liked.

I agree with Beejo. Wear what suits you and you can't go far wrong.

If I like it I wear it! Who gives a damn about what anyone else thinks. If he doesn't like it HE doesn't have to wear it!Does he always look wonderful himself or does he have things you would rather not see him in? Like baggy old men's jeans.
Go for it! I'll bet you look amazing.

I love to see a bit of lepoard print on especially a scarf it show someone to be classy ladylike and a touch sexy .... men also love it for that very reason perhaps DH knows that

DHs have strange ideas - I've always ignored mine - I know what I Iook good in!

There's very little that anyone is too old for - it's just a matter of how you do it! I personally hate the thing where you see someone who looks 25 from the back and 92 from the front, but, hey, each to their own.
I think if you like it, go for it!

If you it like wear it. However, I think that it is a shame that doubts have been given headroom! I would talk to your DH and explain that his comments are not helpful. Perhaps he would like to go shopping with you and then you can discuss the merits of the garments! I bet that would keep him quiet.

I bought a grey leopard print dress to wear at my 60th birthday meal- opaque black tights and patent flats- went down very well! Go for it!!

You're never too old - for anything! Wear your leopard print with pride and enjoy. I love animal prints, especially scarves and blouses, although I'd probably draw the line at the Cruella de Vil look. Last week at the Stitchcraft Show, ExCel, I indulged myself and bought some animal print wool for a jumper.

It's tiger skin.....and surely that is Camilla Windsor!

Can't remember when I first saw this, and it's not leopard, but when I am a little older than I am now, and don't have to appear office appropriate, this is exactly how I want to look.

Please note, no diet coke; I like her attitude!

And respect to your DH for his excellent taste.

Hide it with this.

I say wear what you like,when you like, and how you like. Unfortunately I'm fairly conservative when it comes to colours etc, but I love it when I see a lady in vibrant colours wearing something with style.

I don't think it's age but taste. If you like it, wear it at any age. I happen not to like animal prints so I don't wear them be if I did, I would, till I died.

When you're a Cougar! Hee Hee

I bought the huge snow leopard fake fur M&S dressing gown as I thought it would amuse the Grandbabies to see Granny dressed as a big cat. It's very toasty and hides a multitude of rolls of fat sins.

Think of the connotations!

Does wearing leopard print make you a 'cougar' ?

Never. My 86 year old mum rocked the leopard print and she looked fab!
