How To Wear Animal Prints

Let’s face it, animal prints have become classics and are sizzling hot this season, but it can be tricky to pull off. If you wear too much, or don’t pair it with the right accessories, you risk going from hip to dip.  

Here are some suggestions on how to wear animal print correctly.

If you’re wearing an animal print dress, you're already walking on the wild side; you don’t need a short hemline or a plunging neckline. Pair the animal print piece with understated shoes and accessories in a coordinating color.  If you work in a conservative office wear a solid color understated jacket over the dress.

If you want to test the waters, so to speak, consider experimenting with animal prints in your workout attire; however, be cautious about workout pants that are solid tiger, leopard or zebra prints; that style might look more appropriate for a strip club rather than a health club.

If you want to flaunt your wild side in measured doses, outerwear is a terrific choice and a perfect addition to any wild woman’s wardrobe.

Bold animal print tops can be hard to pull off with elegance.  When wearing an animal print sweater or blouse, keep everything else simple and streamlined.   Solid neutral skirts, pants and shoes with simple accessories are the way to go.

Accessories are the perfect way to add hints of animal print to your wardrobe without going hog wild; clutches, belts, shoes, even a scarf tied on your favorite red handbag.
