These leopard trousers never fail to cheer me up and make me strut around like the Queen of Aqua Leopard.

I have worn these trousers five times since I got them in 2023. They are so awesome they stay out year-round in my closet.
I had a different black jacket ready to go with this, but it was a little longer and more attention-pulling.
This neon sweater is short - it stops at the belt, it's not tucked in.
Let's let the pants be the star.
Without the jacket, which I took off briefly after huffing up the stairs in the morning.
It's getting chillier and it was gorgeously sunny today - we had a spectacular sunset.
The stuff:
My shoes always get admirers - they're such a cool colour, and comfy too!
It was warm enough to do a sleeveless coat.
Accoutrements:
I did wish for a scarf on the way home.
- Beret - Fair Set, vintage 90s, consignment
- Leather studded gloves - Danier Leather
Black bling:
I liked how my new-ish enameled bracelet went with the trousers - I'll be wearing them together again.
- Belt - gift from Ruth
- Enamel/crystal cuff - Lauren G. Adams, consignment
- Metal/glass flower brooch - vintage 60s, Mom's
- Fly brooch - consignment
- Lucite/gold hinged bangle/earrings - Alexis Bittar, consignment, gift from L
- Brass ball necklace - consignment
- Brass leopard ring - thrifted
- Turquoise/gold ring - consignment
I wore the flower brooch on my coat's lapel, and the fly on my blazer.
