Me in my beloved blue leopard cardigan from Dolce & Gabbana’s S/S 2010 collection
Due to the ongoing leopardmania, there will be a lot of wild cats around this winter, so you probably better make sure to stick out of the crowd. And the best way might be Dolce & Gabbana`s colourful twist on their signature animal print. What started last season in blue and red, is for this fall all about pink and green.
Give your wardrobe some va va voom and pick your leopard print essentials for this fall. A stylish cardigan or scarf will bring a bit of colour to an all black outfit and an animal-print bag will add an instant hit of glamour to your daily look.
Make a roaring fashion statement in those colourful leos!

The cult of Louis Vuitton`s Stephen Sprouse leo scarf is a worldwide phenomena. It started in 2006 when Marc Jacobs made his first tribute to the artist, who had died at the age of 50 in 2004, by using the leo print the two had created together. An It-stole was born.
The first colour marron has become an integral part of every year`s collection, followed by other seasonal versions. Wrapped around many celeb necks, the scarf is bound to go down in history as one of the most famous of its kind.
Another historical moment took place last month in London when Louis Vuitton celebrated their new store on New Bond Street with the launch of 4 limited editions of their iconic Leo scarves. Only available in the British capital, they were sold out immediately on the opening day.
I know so many who were diappointed the last years because they missed the new colours. We do not want this to happen again! Here is the preview of the two latest designs for F/W 2010, said to be in stores around August. The statement piece was seen already on Margherita Missoni in Monte Carlo (see above). Always good to be friends with a designer.
So girls, who are not on good terms with Marc, get yourselves on the wait lists now and claws out for the new leo!

Spotted on the Gucci F/W 2010 runway: Python tights! The new season`s look is ultra seductive and I cannot wait to have this snake-patterned lace on my legs.
When it comes to hosiery, my favourite brand is by far Wolford. The quality is just amazing, the designs are up-to-date and the products provide maximum comfort. The F/W 2010 collection, which will be in stores approximately mid-June, includes wonderful python legwear similar to the catwalk ones above but with a much better price-performance ratio.
To keep my promise and you posted, here is also the preview of Wolford`s leopard hosiery. Aren`t those divine? Available in four different colour combinations: sahara beige/black, black/black, green/black and fuchsia/black.
This is so appealing to my animal instincts. What about yours?

Summer is here, but fashionwise winter is knocking at the door. During the next weeks I will tell you all about the rising F/W 2010 trends. You will be up-to-date before the looks will be present in the fashion magazines. So enjoy the first one:
Spotted a lot on the runways once more were animal prints with leopard and ocelot up front! Add just one item to your wardrobe and your seasonal definition will be ensured. My absolute favourite is the stunning coat by Gucci, my must-have!
Among the accessories, the feline pattern appeared on shoes and bags all over. Just one piece of those will be enough to make a fierce statement! Let the prints do the talking and keep the rest minimal. A cheer for all copy-cats!
LoL, Sandra
