Tinsley Mortimer's Leopord Jimmy Choo: Snob or Slob?

Leopard was a big trend at the Spring Summer 2010 runway shows, so it seems that, at least for now, the bold print is here to stay. On the left Tinsley Mortimer is pictured in a Leopard Jimmy Choo clutch which I think does a great job of spicing-up her outfit. Does anyone else think we have Kate Moss to thank (or blame...depending on your stance), for this trend? Every time I see Moss in a leopard bag, jacket or booties I swoon at how effortless she makes something that could so easily look tacky, look so damn hot! That said I think Tinsley Mortimer demonstrates that the key thing with leopard is wearing it in small doses and with under-stated accompanying pieces.

What do you think about leopard bags? Snob or Slob?

  • Yes, Kate is 9 times out 10 always seen with leopard. I have always used it as stable in my wardrobe to spice up an outfit. I dont have a leopard purse though

  • Snob! Leopard bags or any animal print bag is good in small doses. It's easy to overdo it though, but this clutch adds just the right touch. :)

  • DEFINITELY SNOB!!!

    I think that Tinsley is doing Leopard the best way like you said in small doses. I think it is the perfect touch of a little edge. In other words, I LOVE IT!!!!

  • It's actually a bag from her Tinsley Mortimer for Samantha Thavasa collection (style 0908TM2). She only carries bags from her own line.

  • she is trying way to hard. and it you can tell. matchy-matchy.com
