Call me old fashioned, call me muddle headed but I need your help.What’s with the leopard print pump? Like the 'classic trench’ (see previous post) the leopard print pump appears on so many must have lists that we are all in danger of looking like a guerrilla (gorilla?) army if we all ran out and bought a pair and wore them at once. Isaac Mizrahi in ‘How to Have Style’ says the leopard print pump is as essential as the black pump and the Mary Jane.
Now I don’t wish to offend, but to me they kinda look cheap. Not exactly street-walking cheap, but sheesh, not a good look. I just don’t wanna look like Pamela Anderson (god love her and I do too) when I step out the door in the morning to go to work.
And what do you wear your leopard print pumps with? If you wear all black, surely a black shoe would be better? A all white pant suit? Head to toe animal prints? I am soooo confused. And in the winter months, what tights? Surely not black?
But I am lost. Help me here. I'm all ears!!!!! Are they really attractive? Or do you really look like a hooker when you wear them?
