Five Ways to Wear Leopard Pieces

High fives and fist bumps all around! Leopard is one of the hottest trends for fall 2019 and this girl couldn’t be more excited. You know I’m a leopard lover from WAY back. Even though it’s never really gone out of style, this pattern is definitely having a moment right now. The biggest change for this season is we’re seeing even bolder ways to incorporate it into our outfits. But what are some ways to wear leopard print?

Over the past years of Outfit Formulas® we’ve styled our fair share of leopard accessories – from shoes to scarves, belts, bags and even jewelry. But this year’s leopard pieces are a lot more daring with all-over pattern appearing on tops, bottoms, dresses, coats and more.

If styling a piece of leopard like this feels a little too adventurous, check out these five ways to wear leopard print that you can pair up with some of your favorite closet staples to be totally on trend this fall.

1. Leopard Skirt or Pants + Chambray Shirt

Tuck your favorite chambray button down into a pencil, pleated or flare skirt. Not a skirt girl? No problem! Try a pair of leopard printed jeans or pants. Add a statement necklace and heeled sandals for an instant outfit!

2. Leopard Sweater or Sweatshirt + Ankle Jeans

Leopard sweaters and sweatshirts are honestly my favorite cozy way to add a printed piece to your wardrobe. Pair it with two closet staples – ankle jeans and a pair of taupe ankle booties.

3. Leopard Blouse + Ankle Pants or Skirt

So perfectly polished for the office! A leopard blouse begs to be paired with ankle pants or a pencil skirt in just about any solid color. A tassel necklace is all you need to finish it out!

4. Leopard Raincoat + Striped Top + Black Jeans

For a fun new twist on your typical rainwear, just add leopard! This spotted topper is perfectly patterned mixed with a striped top, black jeans and some red rain boots.

5. Leopard Coat + Black Dress

Remember – leopard IS a neutral. Swap out your typical camel or black wool coat for this printed pretty. Wear it over a black sweater dress with tall black boots for a dressier look that works for office to date night. Don’t forget – leopard and tortoise were practically made for each other! Add these tortoise accessories to amp up any of these looks.
