Not sure you can pull off a leopard print dress? Borrow a page from Anna Paquin's style book and you can rock a black and white leopard print dress for day or night. Here's what you should borrow from her look:
- Paquin toned down the wild print by pairing it with a strong shouldered black blazer.
- The dress has a high neckline, which keeps the leopard print frock from crossing into hoochie territory.
- Black tights are almost always right when you want to keep a miniskirt classy--weather depending, of course.
- Her jewelry is simple, her makeup is minimal and her hair is soft and flowy, all helping to keep the look demure.
What you should leave to the celebrities:
- While I like Paquin's belt, an over-sized belt can be uncomfortable to wear all day long and you need a tiny waist to pull this look off. Instead, opt for a plain, black belt that's about 1" wide or forgo one all together.
- Her black satin pump disappear into the blackness. A slouchy, chunky black boot would have been more fun.

I found mixing baking soda with a good clarifying shampoo takes out the unwanted orange or red nicely if thats what the refresher pack gives you. Have also heard head and shoulders works well to remove semi permanent color. I for one am a fan of the color refresher since I use natural instincts to cover my bleached out blonde hair and it fades out fast leaving a greyish green cast. The refresher color balances those tones out great for me!
