Animal prints are a rage this season. You can see it on red carpet parties, clubs and almost anywhere. You can find them on shoes, bags, accessories, swim wear and of course clothes. Leopard, tiger and zebra prints in particular look chic and elegant. Don’t worry; no animals are hurt in the process. These are mostly taken through digital sources.
Too much of animal print though, will make you look like a fashion victim who’s got it all wrong. For instance, if you have a pair of leopard leggings, then wear it with a contrasting or solid color dress. Black and brown goes well with the original leopard color. If you have a black and white leopard print, then black is always a safer and more stylish alternative.
Cool animal print tops look great for evening wear like clubbing. I personally find them to be too gaudy for day wear. However, half n half or semi-printed animal prints can be worn during the day.
Style a passé outfit by pairing them with animal print scarves. A personal favorite here is wearing a solid black or white dress with a zebra print scarf. Apart from the blacks and whites, you can find these scarves in a combination of blue, red and even green colors.
Now, before you get excited about picking up at least on of each, remember these rules of thumb-
- Never wear more than one animal print on your body (not even two different animal prints)
- The above rule applies for accessories too
