You clamored for leopard shoes – I hasten to respond! If these shoes were mine, I’d be seriously looking at one of these bags – there are LOTS of options…
Loafers – Clarks
Embellished sweater – Marni, black earrings – Alexis Bittar, silk trousers – Jaeger, print dress – People Tree, leaf earrings – Caia, shoulder bag – Beara Beara, loafers – Clarks
Black shirt – Splendid, earrings – Alexis Bittar, bracelet – YooLa, trousers – Stella McCartney, beaded top – Bottega Veneta, square stud earrings – Open Sky, skirt – Jil Sander, bracelet – Emilio Pucci, loafers – Clarks
Drop earrings – Art Smith by Barse, jacquard sweater – Forte Forte, boyfriend jeans – Current/Elliott, tote bag – Clueto, black drop earrings – Vivien Frank Designs, giraffe dress – Michael Michael Kors, clutch bag – Georgina Skalidi, loafers – Clarks
As I so often find, these items look particularly nice when aggregated. Toss in a white shirt and maybe a black dress (as well as another pair of shoes!) and you’d be well outfitted for travel!
love,
Janice

Not my colours compared to the previous one but a lovely combination. Keep them coming please I do enjoy them :-)
I think I may have fallen in love with the giraffe dress…
Me too!
As much as I do like this series, you keep coming up with so many great ideas that I have a difficult time deciding what to take on a business trip next week. Navy? Gray? Black? And now cognac! Thanks for all you do for us. I know I do not say it often enough. Have a lovely weekend.
I have three different styles of leopard flats and wear them often. They are a must have for my wardrobe…I could live in this color palette…and maybe this great dress you selected!!
There's so much to admire and learn from in this post–maybe most of all how elegant, even under-stated, leopard can look when paired with that delicious caramel/cognac shade. Just beautiful, Janice.
Yes, you did hasten to please. Thank you, this is perfect and I will have consider the purse. For any who are interested, I have those shoes, they are very comfortable, look "rich" and are a great price.

I love this capsule, but I'm not sure I can see wearing the leopard print with the giraffe print or even the jacquard sweater. It just seems a little too busy to me. Am I the only one? But the beauty of this is that one could add a pair of solid black shoes and still have a manageable little capsule for a trip.
Wow! Will have to try on Carmel/Cognac again to see if it can be a second neutral. Love all the handbags. You rock.
Thank you so much, Janice, for listening to our requests and once again coming up with the goods. These combinations are truly amazing.
I am just now reading this post. I love leopard flats and this palette is delicious. Often I pair my leopard accents with denim (denim + black, or denim + amber, or denim + white) – nancyo
