Diane Kruger

FameFlynet

Kruger exudes sophistication no matter what she wears. Case in point: leopard and snakeskin at once! Mix your animal prints by choosing patterns in a similar color palette. A utilitarian army jacket nonchalantly tied around the waist comes in handy for those cool desert nights.
