Would you splurge or steal? Even though leopard print is a definite trend, I think that it's also a classic to have in your wardrobe. Leopard boots are a great way to add some spice to a simpler outfit, such as a white blouse and black skinny jeans. For these outfits, I opted to play up some current trends: leather, leopard, and cross jewelry. I paired leather shorts and a tan slouchy sweater with leopard boots and sacrilegious cross jewelry. Now my question is, would you rather splurge or steal? I believe that if you're dying to try out a new trend, go for a cheaper steal first to indulge in the trend, then see if it'll become a classic to later invest in.
