Late Summer Leopard

As I browse my wish list of fall buys, I've realized that at least 30% constitutes some different form of a leopard print. Not sure what it is--or what I'm going through--but I'm quite into the print. But what to do when you get something so great but want to wear it now? Here's how to wear a late summer leopard, pairing a darker print with lighter colors, more free-flowing fabrics and the clincher--open-toed shoes. Makes the transition just a little bit smoother.
