If mixing and matching animal prints seems a bit too adventurous, you can always go for this styling technique: combine leopard print with solid neutral colors for an elegant look!
Here are 10 Practical Style Tips on how you can wear leopard with confidence:
Wear it in little touches. Try to add modest hints of it, for example, you could wear leopard print shoes or in this case, a skirt.
Go for subtlety. Pick leopard patterns in small hazy shades, rather than big daring prints.
Scale leopard prints to smaller size.Tighter prints look impressive on most people.
Keep it simple. For a classic look that will stand the test of time, choose shades closest to natural animal tones.
Pair animal prints with neutrals: Black, khaki, cream, brown, white, and even red.
Stay by the one animal rule. If your pencil skirt is leopard, you don’t need to be wearing a leopard hat, sweater or purse, or particularly if it’s in zebra.
Avoid form-fitting pieces. Remember, we want to look tasteful.
Go for accessories. Think chunky gold jewelry with a hint of leopard.
Recognize it as a classic. It emerged into women’s fashion in the late 60′s and it is here to stay.
Be sure to smile. Leopard prints are chic, not outlandish.
