Fall Fashion Trend: Leopard Print

Leopard print is to fall as floral print is to spring.  Somehow, as each fall season rolls around, leopard print remains relevant and just as chic as the year before.  While other animal prints such as zebra or snakeskin also make for stylish options, leopard print lends an air of playfulness and sexuality.  The warm brown tones of leopard print pair well with neutral fall palettes and add so much warmth and contrast to simple casual outfits.

Typically I go for cooler tones in muted shades but I can’t resist a good leopard print.  This leopard print coat is an old fave that I’ve worn many times over the years (see how I styled it in this blog post from 2016).  In today’s outfit I paired it with this pink velvet cami and some minimalist gold jewellery from Hillberg & Burk (ps. Hillberg & Burk just opened a store in Winnipeg and will be having their grand opening at Polo Park this Saturday!).

For those who are still hesitant about incorporating leopard print into your wardrobe, the easiest way to add a bold print is through accessories.  A simple leopard print clutch, like this inexpensive one from Amazon is a great starting point to ease yourself into the trend.  Here is a round up of a few of my favourite leopard print pieces available right now!
