Leopard print, or any animal print for that matter, has a tendency to look tacky, trashy, and gaudy. We, women, have to be careful about getting it just right. Men generally just downright hate it.

Could Cameron Diaz make wearing leopard print look any easier? Here we are trying real hard not to cross leopard print’s stripper-ish line, and Cameron Diaz comes out looking like she just mindlessly threw her leopard-print shoes on!
