That's why this pair by <i>Current/Elliott</i> has been so popular on the streets on Hollywood. The <i>Current/Elliott</i> 'Stiletto Leopard Print Pants' is a fierce yet fun pair that shows off your wild side in a flattering skinny silhouette. It's best paired with a neutral coloured top and can be worn with boots, heels or flats. You can jazz things up by adding a flash of colour with bright accessories. </span><br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEleaSNIzqLdAQ8e6Yarubpf83Up2lZ8asYYlpxHIIjTFVGeLJPASIldNd5iO5BKMKn8oaLjeLUIuTt9F4HVJ_RY1MZB3zZF0UpJIf-A1nh2GfIQHA1v-ZAkGqMYAB8BMtQQdahNfA4rTL/s1600/leo2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><br /><br /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinm8XaiuSkU2hHAeXmJy02QNutey-bF_YDdsBrudzCz7i4gY6Ykj9L6QoJC4GMG_KFPkbV5HuNz0WkRWx0R3SFmB7ACpt-vQBU705FrC0Ok2UOl2sVGYAlP8Ts1Oyy3ci5zdI_B0-gUdkf/s1600/leo1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinm8XaiuSkU2hHAeXmJy02QNutey-bF_YDdsBrudzCz7i4gY6Ykj9L6QoJC4GMG_KFPkbV5HuNz0WkRWx0R3SFmB7ACpt-vQBU705FrC0Ok2UOl2sVGYAlP8Ts1Oyy3ci5zdI_B0-gUdkf/s640/leo1.jpg" width="512" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><br /><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Top Row: Grey Leopard Print</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"><b>Anna Paquin</b> </span>wears her jeans with a black cropped leather jacket and charcoal tee.

The latest range is every bit as glamourous as we could expect, citing a 70's French film noir inspiration. A balance is maintained between wearable winter boots and staggeringly high heels. There are even a few ballet flats thrown in for good measure. <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span></span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The craftsmanship is exquisite; beautiful shapes are sculpted from luxurious fabrics like velvet, suede, leather and lace. Metallics and leopard print are also a common theme. Besides for the conventional black and nudes, there are sumptuous sandals present in opulent jewel tones. I've been spellbound by the embellished evening sandals, which glitter with crystal covered mesh. Each gorgeous pair of heels is accompanied by a matching belt and handbag. I like the red and black box leather quilted ones.

She held a bright green clutch. Scottish actress <i>Karen Gillan </i>was simple and understated in a beige blouse and denim blue skirt. I like her casual vintage vibe and tousled hairdo. Singer <i>Rachel Steven</i> wore a leopard dress with black lace hem.

I barely recognized shock pop singer <i>Jessie J.</i> She looked so polished in a strapless sequin gown and retro curls. <i>Gemma Arterton </i>won 'Film Actress of the Year'. She wore a short-sleeve dress by Gucci with plaited belt. This look needed a pop of colour. <i>Kim </i><i>Kardashian</i> took the award for 'Entrepreneur of the Year'. She was curvaceous in a (too) tight corset gown by Dolce and Gabbana. She was adorned in chunky Lorraine Schwartz jewels.</span></span></td></tr><br /></tbody></table><br /><br /><br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><br /><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWnY12LQA6mKERJ_LAeopKOdLbviC8aWzEkWCPhZvEo9kV5CIQgPP_Pp0jblu4Bi-cLknSde7x6bsYA4Myxccmze3RlDCXXp2xehcasaQ9xyN-vUWIYiJQhv4vUOMTXs-aA05PR-WY7fY/s1600/glamour2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="452" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWnY12LQA6mKERJ_LAeopKOdLbviC8aWzEkWCPhZvEo9kV5CIQgPP_Pp0jblu4Bi-cLknSde7x6bsYA4Myxccmze3RlDCXXp2xehcasaQ9xyN-vUWIYiJQhv4vUOMTXs-aA05PR-WY7fY/s640/glamour2.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr><br /><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Radio personality <i>Fearne Cotton</i> wore a mustard satin dress by Miu Miu with tri-colour heels. Kirsty Gallacher looked so sleek and radiant in an apple green maxi gown. X-Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos stood out in cerise. I don't like the styling and black strappy heels with this dress.

This proves that 'frozen waterfalls' are not meant to be worn. At least JJ always carries interesting handbags. <i>Pixie Geldof</i> wears a bird printed tablecloth with pink lace trim. Actually, I don't think this would even do as a tablecloth. X Factor winner <i>Alexandra Burke</i> does such an injustice to this pink floral D&G gown.

An extra large share at that too.</span></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPM1jwo_yX2xAZRNDORwmRIAGFTD_B20fA2Eqd8kiIML_Ch6eyPLNKW2tWxhShpuT9oT5efg8qemvqY_o6hJUhNpI-Yi25NDujdxcW675HM4xuWZ9ccPKpVifq9BT0eniwxPI5VyXhEEE/s1600/Kim+Kardashian+covergirl.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="568" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPM1jwo_yX2xAZRNDORwmRIAGFTD_B20fA2Eqd8kiIML_Ch6eyPLNKW2tWxhShpuT9oT5efg8qemvqY_o6hJUhNpI-Yi25NDujdxcW675HM4xuWZ9ccPKpVifq9BT0eniwxPI5VyXhEEE/s640/Kim+Kardashian+covergirl.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;">'Cleopatra</span></i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #666666;"> with a K</span>' - Kim befittingly plays the the part of Egyptian Queen, with dramatic fringed bob, kohl-lined cat-eyes and ornate hairpieces.

Tuesday Thrills - Italian Handbags

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My very good friend Maya has a part-time job that many of us can only dream of. She travels to Italy to do personal shopping for individual fashion buyers in South Africa. All you have to do is give her an order of a specific bag, accessory, shoe or dress that you would like, and include details like size, colour, style and any other preferences that you may have. Advise her on the total budget you would like to spend and she will source it especially for you. Exploring Italy and shopping? Sounds heavenly.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwZp2L-dM9ms7iXrHM6YPOII7l5YLSjD2R9A-vu5jy9ederbo3Nj2PR51jv3BISMQdQ_C_gE4XITIRaVa_FizNonW5yslM632XQTx9dM5xlNBSCYTbmOM4PP6jVP8W8SRcoyCJQoDXlJI/s1600/Italian+Handbags.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="360" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwZp2L-dM9ms7iXrHM6YPOII7l5YLSjD2R9A-vu5jy9ederbo3Nj2PR51jv3BISMQdQ_C_gE4XITIRaVa_FizNonW5yslM632XQTx9dM5xlNBSCYTbmOM4PP6jVP8W8SRcoyCJQoDXlJI/s640/Italian+Handbags.jpg" width="640" /></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"></span></div><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /><br />These are two of the handbags Maya has brought from Italy on her most recent trip this month. All the handbags she imports are made from genuine Italian leather and are surprisingly affordable.<br /><br /><br /><br />On the left, is an Etro bag made of brown textured leather with floral and paisley prints in black, white and purple. This tote bag is worn on the arm or in-hand and is beautifully embellished with leather pop-up flowers in pink, green and yellow. It playfully features a pink and orange butterfly, green and yellow lizard and brown/beige turtle.<br /><br /><br /><br />This summer-inspired bag, which is made in Milan, will brighten any girl’s mood simply by looking at it. Since it has a splash of almost every colour, it blends well with anything you put on and is big enough to carry all your essentials and more. This is the ideal daily-use bag for girls who don’t have time to swap handbags to match both colour and style. It can be worn with jeans and summer dresses. It is also an attention-grabbing accessory that will lift and complete the simplest of outfits.<br /><br /><br /><br />The exotic Animal Print bag (pictured right) is made of cow hide. This patch bag has small squares of furry cow hide dyed into leopard and zebra prints which are then sewn into a stylish rectangular shape. The colour palette consists of brown, black, grey and beige hues.<br /><br /><br /><br />Animal prints are the in thing this winter in Europe and this trend will certainly hit our shores in a few months when stilettos to match will be a must-have item. This tote bag can be worn on the arm and also comes with a shoulder strap. It is beautifully accessorised with a matching bag charm: A gold, diamante and leopard-print boot dangling on a gold chain. This bag will be the focal point of any simple black, brown or beige ensemble.<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"></span>Buy your ideal Italian handbag on <a href="http://www.loveitalianfashion.co.za/">loveitalianfashion.co.za </a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Times;"><br /><br /></span></span>
