Happy 1st Day of October!
Are you ready to style the leopard skirt?
I first started seeing animal prints last August. I knew this was going to be a hot trend for the rest of the year especially when I spotted girls wearing animal prints all over fashion week. I was still in doubt, because once people see slavic girl wearing animal print, they make stupid assumptions…You know what I mean, right?
Anyway, it didn’t stop me especially when I saw J. Crew animal print midi skirt. I am 5.4 so wearing large prints can be intimidating sometimes for my smaller frame. If you are petite and curious how to style print skirt, this blog post is for you.
Most people consider leopard print as neutral, so I thought it would be fun to style this animal printed midi skirt with more neutrals. Style your skirt with brown, white or lilac sweater. I personally styled my leopard skirt with white cotton blouse and another look I’ve styled with lilac cardigan sweater from J.Crew. I call it: one skirt, but you can wear 2 days in the raw with different tops.
LOOK # 1:
Cardigan sweater: SEQUIN FLOWER JACKIE CARDIGAN SWEATER (original price: CAD $125.50, sale price: CAD $111.90 plus additional 30% off)
Pencil Skirt: LINEN PENCIL SKIRT IN LEOPARD PRINT
Earrings: SIMILAR
Shoes: JIMMY CHOO PINK GLITTER ROMY 100 HEELS
STYLE TIP # 2: Style your leopard print skirt with heels or block heels
Did you know that you can give the illusion of height by wearing midi skirts and heels together? I the winter I love wearing block heeled boots or booties and in the office my heels that will match my top 😊
LOOK # 2:
Blouse: MOCKNECK EMBROIDERED BLOUSE
Pencil Skirt:LINEN PENCIL SKIRT IN LEOPARD PRINT
Earrings: SIMILAR
Shoes: MANOLO BLAHNIK
STYLE TIP # 3: Keep Accessories at a minimum.
The animal print the focal point of my outfit so I chose to keep my accessories at a minimum. I’m still wearing earrings, but I chose not to style any necklaces, bracelets, or rings with this outfit.
What are your tips for styling a leopard prints?
Thank you for reading!
