When are you too old for leopard print?

You might get away with wearing it if you are a seven year old boy in a onesies.

Loathe and despise leopard print.

Sorry to hear that Candlefran. I'm writing this snuggly wearing my huge fluffy leopard skin dressing gown. It was bought for me as a spoof Christmas present but to the horror of the purchaser I love it! The DGS loves it too and loves to be cuddled when I'm wearing it. Win win!

Never ever....love it
Dh just bought me dressing gown in m and s for birthday.....so snuggley
I try to only wear 1 piece at a time....it's always admired

Oh, go the whole hog Bbnan head to toe in it ( leopards do.)

I love a bit of leopard print

It's only a collar! Tell DH to stop being so conservative. And get some big diamante earrings to go with it.

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

Does wearing leopard print make you a 'cougar' ?

Think of the connotations!

(Bet Lynch in Corrie)

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.

When you're a Cougar! Hee Hee

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.

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.

Hide it with this.

And respect to your DH for his excellent taste.

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!

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

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.

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!!

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.

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!

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

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

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.

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.
