I wouldn't want to visit a zoo in these shoes, lest the animals revolt at my cruelty to their compatriots. But otherwise, animal print is a go. My usual plan with high maintenance shoes is to downplay the rest of the outfit. (I realize there's a distinct possibility that I am very dull.) Pair leopard print platforms with a jean skirt and a white top or a simple black dress and kazaam. I have no idea what kazaam is meant to imply, so someone please wear these shoes and investigate for me.
