This spring let your wardrobe take a walk on the wild side with some of this season’s hottest animal print pieces.Animal print really made its presence known this fall, dominating the runways and autumn collections of fashion designers around the world.
This spring it’s clear that animal prints aren’t going anywhere anytime soon, and to be honest, we’re loving it. Leopard print has long since been a consistent (and underrated ) wardrobe staple for women, but this recent rise in animal print pieces has brought a brand new appreciation for outfits and styles that showcase an entirely different variety of prints from throughout the animal kingdom!
Read on for some tips on how to style this season’s best animal prints pieces.
1. Exercise Your Animal Side with an Accessory
A bag is one of the quickest ways to incorporate new styles or prints into your wardrobe. For the animal print newbie, a cute bag like this leopard print tote or this simple cross-body clutch bag are a great place to start if you’re looking to make a more subtle statement then you have to introduce this type of print into your wardrobe.
2. Keep Warm in an Faux Fur Coat
Faux fur coats have been a wardrobe staple for decades and it’s clear why. Not only are they warm and perfect for staying cozy while you are brave enough in the blustery winter season, but they’re the ultimate cold weather statement piece if you’re looking to accent a little animal print. Leopard print fur is our personal favourite way to style these pieces and we guarantee you’ll want to get spotted in this look too.
3. Get Wild in a Mini Dress
Looking to highlight your animal side for a night out at the bar or a special event? An animal print mini dress is an incredible way to style this look and there are so many different ways that you can do it. Our current obsession is this snakeskin mini dress.The loose neckline and slip dress frame is the perfect cut for a more minimalist look, while the snakeskin design makes this mini dress a real statement piece for any wardrobe.
4. Mix and Match with Separates
Similar to the sleek and minimal look of the mini slip dress mentioned above, separates can be another great way to incorporate an animal print statement piece into your wardrobe. A classic high-waisted pencil skirt, like this one here featuring a chic snakeskin print, is the perfect way to style animal print into your outfits and looks effortless paired alongside a basic piece like a plain white tee.
5. Go All Out Animal with a Coord Set
Sometimes more truly means more, and we can’t help but think it’s a rule that applies to animal print as well. While you may think of animal prints like snakeskin and leopard print as an accent piece meant to highlight a certain part of your outfit, that doesn’t necessarily always have to be the case! An animal print coord set like this snakeskin combination that features a crop top and pair of biker shorts is a great way to go all out in styling this look. Seriously, if this doesn’t scream Kim Kardashian, we don’t know what does.
