Leopard - sexy or trashy?

[Jen2005]

Personally for me, it depends on the individual print, if its not done well and feels clumsy, it feels trashy. If its a really nice print and done tastefully then I'm all for it.
I have some leopard/black degrade heels (not CL) that I love.

Did you get these shoes amos99?

I wouldn’t say these shoes are sexy as such but paired with the right outfit they’ll look lovely. I don’t view all leopard or animal print as trashy either, again for me it’s how it’s worn .. and sometimes who by. My first pair of CLs were patent leopard VPs about 15 years ago. Never wore them but I loved them! Life would be very boring if we all shared the same opinion or wore the same things

I used to have a pair of leopard stacked heels and loved them. Personally I think they can be worn tastefully.

Definitely depends on how you style it. I own a few leopard pairs and I don't think I look trashy LOL...I've been collecting CLs since 2007 and still have yet to find one of my HGs...the leopard Ernesta 120.

Depends on the outfit and the occasion in which they're worn.

Now there’s a style that takes me back!

Those were the days! The styles Monsieur Louboutin has been coming out with the last several years are just so...meh.

Leopard print to me is like wearing a pop of color; it depends on what else you're wearing, where you're wearing it to and the piece itself. The pic of the shoes you referenced are ok in matters of print, but I think would look sexier/edgier in a higher heel. You can get away with an under 95mm heel height in classic colors like black or nude, but a non-neutral heel looks much better in a 95mm+ heel.

I like them but depends on how you style them - I think these would look great and still classy with jeans and a white shirt for example
