I've never been keen on animal prints. It always reminded me of Kat Slater from Eastenders. And you know what they say about Kat's fashion sense! Haha. :)

However..

I came across an asymmetrical tunic in Topshop this week, it wasn't quite leopard-ish. It was grey instead of the usual brown. It didn't look tacky at all. So I gladly purchased it.

Today I tried it on and it was love. Added a black leather bow belt and a cardi to complete to the look (And yes, I can definitely tolerate wearing a cardigan in this heat. I wore skinny jeans in Egypt last year :P) 
Giving you the finger :P

What do you think of animal prints? Yay or nay?

    I love a bit of animal print, but not the traditional Bet Lynch colours! The grey makes it much cooler and more wearable, I love that tunic! I have a couple of scarves that are quite similar. Looks great with a bit of colour from the cardi too. Fantastic outfit!x

    Ive never been a fan of animal prints either, but now they're back again, I'm actually changing my mind too! I found myself picking up a leopard scarf in H&M today. I really like your tunic too, its subtle animal print and looks lovely on you.

    I've always been a bit wary of leopard print too, reminds me of Scary Spice lol! I think it can be more wearable if it's not actually in 'leopard colours' - your tunic looks quite subtle because it's grey.
    Cute necklace too. xxx
