I just advised my 9-year-old kiddo not to mix animal-print leggings with a slightly different animal-print shirt, saying it clashed. I totally regret this now!

Hey my philosophy is wear whatever makes you feel good as long as it’s not harmful to others.

O would that I still had my animal prints! I love you Kurt Cobain, but I was so mad when he let everyone in on shopping at Salvation Army because the vintage finds there were so amazing before they got cleaned out in the 90s. One of my big regrets in life was going through this phase where I (so wrongly) thought I had to dress “professional” in order to do my job well, so I crushed my soul by wearing Banana Republic and I donated/sold my precious vintage finds, among them fake leopard jacket, fake seal coat, all manner of fake fur, and this amazing wool long-sleeved white leopard print dress that I shortened and I imagined I was Twiggy when I wore it - I mean, if Twiggy was a short brunette with a pear shaped torso instead of twig and no thanks to my oder brother for giving me that body dysmorphic image (pear) to stew over in my young teen years…

For me and my friends, it was the Army-Navy store and local flea markets where we discovered our best finds.

But is there an animal print you would never wear?

I think cow prints are better for rugs, but other than that, I'd wear anything!
