Hello there! Ladies, I’m sure you’ve noticed by now—animal prints are here to stay. Leopard print, in particular—which happens to be my favorite—has become a timeless classic among fashion lovers. I truly believe that this versatile print can be worn year-round, instantly transforming a dull outfit into something chic and exciting.
However, animal prints can be tricky to style without crossing into tacky territory. That’s why I’m here to share a few tips on how to wear them confidently and tastefully. The key to pulling off animal prints is all about balance. To achieve this, pair them with plain colors and steer clear of other prints. This keeps your look stylish and sophisticated.
For example, in this outfit, I’m wearing a mid-length leopard silky skirt from Parfois. Leopard print, especially in this silky fabric, feels almost like a neutral—it pairs beautifully with earthy tones or bright colors alike. This versatility makes it perfect for wearing year-round. To keep things simple, I chose a black graphic oversized tee from Bershka for a more elevated look. I completed the outfit with my big gold-buckle black patent Birkenstocks and my Celine Triomphe medium straw bag. Just like that, I was ready to stroll through the city, visit the street market, and enjoy some ice cream!
If you’re drawn to other prints like zebra or cow print, simplicity is key. The safest and most elegant option is to pair these prints with black or earthy tones. But if you’re feeling bold, red can be a stunning choice to add a pop of color. I do find that zebra and cow prints are a bit more challenging to style than leopard or cheetah, so take your time experimenting.
Now, I’d love to hear from you—do you wear prints in your daily outfits? How do you style them? Let me know in the comments!
