How to wear animal print
Nowadays there are no rules at the time to wear. The most important thing is that you feel confident and comfortable with what you are wearing. Then here are some look ideas so you can see how nice leopard print can adapt to different outfits, shapes, and styles.
Skirts
These long skirts were trendy not long ago. They are comfortable and very good-looking with sneakers, sandals, or heels for the bottom. And depending on the occasion, where are you going and how you want to look, there are infinitive alternatives for the top: classic t-shirt, silk blouse, long sleeves shirts, etc.
Dresses
There’s nothing better than loving so much a cloth you want to wear all year long. Well, this is possible with animal print dresses. For summer or winter, they are for any time. For example, if you have a strappy dress and want to wear it for fall, you only have to add a turtle neck shirt under the dress, tights, boots, and a long coat. And voilá!

Boots
If you don’t dare or simply don’t like so much animal print, you can start wearing it in the footwear. Leopard boots are an example of how a pattern can rock a classic outfit. Let them be the main character of your look: a pair of jeans, a neutral sweater, a long coat, and boots. On the contrary, if you like so much animal print and have other garments like blouses, handbags, belts, etc, you can add it to your look and will be incredible too. Just see these pictures to have a better idea of what I’m talking about.

Blouses
Animal print blouses and shirts are always a good idea. Just let the top be the main character of your total look and then let the rest be more simple and classic: blue jeans, black leather trousers, and boots. Furthermore, what we do with our makeup and hair is important too.

I used to see it as something ugly, out of style or elegance. But after looking for some outfits inspiration I realize that I’m the only one responsible for how to style animal print in my look. When you see someone else wearing it and you don’t like it. It’s not animal print’s fault, neither the other person’s. It’s you that simply don’t like how it was styled but you can change that with your outfit and use it as you prefer.
