Leopard print, EVERYTHING!

The animal print trend has been ongoing for quite some time, but the leopard & cheetah print is a favorite of mine & is all over right now.  Wallets, clutches, hand bags, belts, scarves, jeans, heels, wedges, flats, cardigans, blouses, tights, coats, EVERYTHING! Be subtle with the neutrals or go bold with the colors, all that matters is that you rock some leopard this season!  

All I ask is that you won't go over board, it is not necessary nor encouraged to wear a leopard print cardigan belted with a leopard print belt, while rocking leopard print ballet flats & carrying a leopard print hand bag. Make this trend your POP piece.  Sport it with solids (of any color) and do not mix with any other prints.

Here are what some designers have come up with this season:

Tory Burch Roxana Cardigan $295

Tory Burch Foundation Cheetah Scarf $125

This Tory Burch crimson cheetah print cardi & fuchsia scarf adds that perfect pop of color while utilizing this bold trend this season.

Tory Burch is one of my favorites and this season she offers almost anything you could possibly want in leopard and cheetah print!  I'm OBSESSED with Tory's ballet flats, especially for fall & winter. Recently I found THE PERFECT leopard print shoe on her website and am anticipating the arrival of this gorgeous little piece of heaven within 3-5 business days... pictures to come, do not fret.

Sperry Top-Sider® 'Skiff' Moccasin $59

The loafer and moccasin trend is huge right now, why not purchase it in leopard print? The clear sequins also adds a little something extra to this classic shoe.  Pair these with a dark skinny or straight leg jean & a solid color top & your outfit is complete.

Gallery Faux Leopard Fur Jacket $158

Faux Fur Leopard? YES PLEASE! We already went over how HUGE the faux fur trend is this season, but I've been seeing A LOT of it in the leopard print as well.  I say why not? You only live once!

Yves Saint Laurent 'Cabas Chyc' Satchel $2795

House of Harlow 1960 'Orlina' Box Clutch $225

This is my favorite; the cheetah print hand bag, wallet or clutch!  This YSL hand bag is a beautiful way to add this trend into your wardrobe.  Other brands like Kate Spade, Tory Burch & Michael Kors offer pieces in the cheetah print as well.

Sam Edelman 'Wilma' Bootie $160 (Image Sources:ToryBurch.com & Nordstrom.com)

The 'bootie' is a big trend this season, but this Sam Edelman wedge bootie in the leopard print does it all for me!  I've seen the leopard print on almost every shoe style possible, if the bootie isn't your thing, try it in a ballet flat, loafer, or a simple wedge.  

Everything is possible.  Be fierce.
