I must say that one of my favorite trends this season is definitely all things leopard print. I am completely obsessed and find myself gravitating towards it. Subconsciously, it may be my mind drawing me towards the brown and black color combination.
Whatever the attraction may be, I have found myself incorporating it into my wardrobe as if is were a neutral. I have convinced myself, it is a neutral. After all, it does go with everything, right?!
I am pretty much splashing and incorpating leopard print wherever I can and styling it with all things in my closet. I’ve gone as far as purchasing everything from earrings, scarf, blouse, pants, jacket and even shoes. Some people may shy away from this print thinking the print/pattern itself may be a little too busy or even think it may make them look animal like or believe in the misconception that the print may make ones body appear shapelier than normal.
In my opinion, that thought train is so not the case. My advice is to style and incorporate the print in moderation into your outfit for a classier look. Steer away from too much of the print in one outfit and tone it down by using one leopard print piece as an anchor.
If you shy away from this print or you are just nervous thinking you may not be able to pull off leopard print, give my advice a shot. You will be pleasantly surprised. Select one piece in leopard and style it with a solid piece. I promise you will love the look and become completely as obsessed as I am with this trend.
Below are some of my favorite ways to style leopard print: (for all outfit details, click HERE)
Spruce up a simple sweater dress by adding a leopard print scarf.
This is hands down the best sweater and goes so well with workwear and casual wear. Can’t beat the price either.
Another great top layered over a long black short sleeve maxi. Layering for Fall allows you to refresh pieces that otherwise, you may have retired from warmer seasons.
Faux fur styled with a simple LBD makes completes this look giving it a classy and sophisticated one.
Lastly, bring an all black look to life with a pop of leopard in your shoes. These sock leopard booties are so fun.
All in all, if you haven’t jumped on the leopard print trend…give it a shot and have fun with it. Start out with an accessory such as shoes, scarf or earrings then move on to a clothing piece such as a top, pants, or coat. I am completely obsessed and wild about this trend. Have fun styling your outfits!
