The Spice Girls have alot to answer for. Not only did they pave the way for girl groups but they also bought us a range of fashion and showed us that we don’t have to dress like the rest of the crowd to fit in.
Even though they have now all gone their separate ways they are still continuing to give us style inspiration so we decided that it was time we shone the spotlight on them all separately.
First to be scrutinised is Mel B who was one of the ladies that made leopard print wearable. In her Spice Girl days this print was never far away from her wardrobe, nor were neons or checks.
Beauty wise it was all about the big curls. However since the split this lady has spiced up swapping the prints for slinky dresses and neons for on-trend colours. And there’s not a curl in sight with her now super sleek locks.
See the gallery below and let us know which style you prefer.

The legendary fashion designer Roberto Cavalli is turning his magic hands from fashion to the home, as he’s creating a collection of furniture, wallpaper, flooring and home textiles in his iconic animal prints that he’s so well known for. I can’t actually imagine anything more wonderful, trashy and glam than Cavalli home decor – can you?
Roberto, who is famous for his glamorous and sexy European designs, said about his new homewares project: “The home and the objects that surround us reflect our lifestyle. The fantasy, memories of a trip.we are always looking for new inspirations to have objects and atmospheres around us where we feel at ease. [This collection stems from] my personal wish to share with those who love me the joy of living my fashion, my creativity, my philosophy and my style also in the world of home decorating.”
The homewares are going to be sold worldwide, with distribution in Europe, the United States and Asia. I don’t think I’ll be able to resist leopardprint towels and wallpaper for long – it’s only a matter of time til I get bitten by the Cavalli fashion bug..

Rose Byrne's outfit for the "Late Show with David Letterman" was so perfect, we had to do a piece on it!
We’ve had our eye on “Bridesmaids” actress Rose Byrne for a while now, but we just loved her outfit she was papped in yesterday for an appearance on the “Late Show” that we had to do a piece on it.
The whole thing is just so chic and genius – the dark jewel colours of the leopard print are a modern update of a sexy classic, but the neat shift shape of the dress show off her tiny frame and keep the look from being OTT. Because the dress is such a statement, Rose cleverly went for simple and classic accessories, matching the black leather of her skinny belt that cinches in her waist to her black patent heels.
We’re a huge fan of dainty, understated jewellery right now, so it was nice to see Rose trying out the trend with a simple and delicate gold pendant. When we were looking for pieces to replicate Rose’s look we came across an amazing Egyptian-inspired gold pendant from Asos, which you can see in the gallery above.
We’ve also found a green leopard-print dress that is similar to Rose’s – but at a high-street price. Aren’t we good to you? Check out the gallery above to see how you can steal her style.

Kylie Minogue had some major growl power in contrasting leopardprints - a brave look
As a dedicated follower of celebrity style, I was surprised yesterday to see Kylie Minogue in London’s Piccadilly Circus looking like a proper bad-girl with in a leopard-print shift dress with a contrasting animal-print bag, completed with a saucy pair of black stilettos. Goodness, it’s like Michael Hutchence all over again, no?
Others have been a little unsure so far about Kylie’s bold choice to clash her animal prints, but we’re actually quite impressed. After all, this season is going to be all about a mad, clashing hotpotch of textiles and prints – Kylie’s just getting in on the trend early.
If you want to try cramming in as much animal print into your outfit as possible (and we have found some of our favourite leopard-printed beauties on the high street in the gallery above), the only thing you need to remember is SIMPLICITY. No heavy jewellery, no over-accessorising and no big hair. Otherwise we’ll have a whole nation full of Pat Butchers on our hands.

Trend Alert, vintage
By Andrea Petrou on August 26th, 2010
Not a season goes by without leopard print making some sort of appearance, be it bold or very subtly hiding in trims.
This season it’s back to making a statement prowling into the highstreet in the shape of faux fur cropped jackets, peep toe shoes and Bette Lynch vintage style frocks. And as A/W 2010 gives a huge nod to accessories we can see this print making an appearance in hairbands, clips and skinny vintage style belts, not to mention bags.
Love it or hate it you’re not going to get away from this trend and if you’re the latter we suggest you change your spots and get buying this print, we guarantee with a statement coat you’ll look and feel like the cat who got the cream.
View the gallery below for our top five must-haves.
