In June 2012, the always-sexy Cheryl Cole was spotted leaving her Paris hotel in a pair of leopard-print “Polly” pumps from Charlotte Olympia.
Cheryl topped off a leopard print embellished panel dress with these chic irregular platform heels. Let’s look at Cheryl in these hot leopard-print pumps, and then we’ll discuss her shoe choice in more detail.

Do you think Cheryl made a good choice by pairing these leopard-print pumps with a leopard-detailed dress? Or is it a bit too much?

I like her look here. However, I think she needed a bold contrasting bag to complete the look and draw some attention away from the loads of animal print. Perhaps a black studded or bold red crocodile clutch would add another element and balance out the look?
Now that you’ve had a second to consider Cheryl’s shoe choice and ensemble, check out her heels in more detail. Then, we’ll see how you feel about the shoes themselves:
Charlotte Olympia ‘Polly’ Calf Hair and Leather Pumps, $1250
Charlotte Olympia Leopard Print Pump, $975
Do you love or hate these heels? The uneven platform and contrasting trim add plenty of interest without overpowering the shoe, but the bold print makes it stand out in a crowd. They’re pretty unique in my book.
I think the ‘Polly’ is really fun and chic, and I love that it could work with a printed dress, jeans, or even black pants. More importantly, though, what do you think?
This is not the only time we’ve seen her in shoes by the London-based brand launched by Charlotte Olympia Dellal. In November 2015, Cheryl styled her Charlotte Olympia “Take 110” film roll sandals with a glamorous long-sleeved Galvan gown.
The silver metallic heels, featuring a unique film roll motif, complemented her ice-queen look, complete with a thigh-high slit that highlighted her toned legs. She accessorized with Maha Lozi jewelry and wore her hair in soft waves, giving a nod to Old Hollywood glamour.
