Obsessed with leopard prints but stuck with the same old style over and over again? Let us show you how to bring back the oomph in your leopard print look this season.
Leopard prints — being a hot extension of the animal print trend — can easily go into the over-and-done with territory, style wise.
The print by design has a particular look that leaves a strong impression visually that to repeat a leopard print outfit within a single week feels like you’re risking it.
While the combination of jeans and tees that is humanity’s signature casual outfit of choice is so mad common; in a sea of people clad in tees-and-jeans, you’ll just be one of them, camouflaged by conformity, if you’re similarly clad.
Place a wearer of leopard prints in that sea of laidback-ness (from which normcore is given birth to) he or she will naturally stand out. And once you’ve singled out the leopard print look, well then, the novelty abandons ship.
If you’re a leopard-loving fashion queen, we sense this must pose a serious wardrobe problem.
So, to bring back the novelty of wearing the animal print this season, find leopard patterns rendered in unconventional colors, mixed with other fabrics such as denim, lace or faux leather, artistically-inspired with brush or pencil strokes or transformed into a patchwork styling.
And instead of an all-over print decorating a top, look out for leopard prints that are utilized as a decorative feature instead. If all fails, pick footwear in leopard prints in the form of sporty trainers or slinky pumps.
