Leopard Print & Stripes

Trend Alert! Mixing patterns is a tricky thing to do without looking like a hot mess. My latest success has been the leopard and stripes trend. As far as I'm concerned, leopard is a neutral in my closet and my view is slowly catching on with the rest of the fashion world.

Leopard print and stripes are two bold prints individually, so when worn together the look is on another level. TOTAL FIERCENESS. If you don't have confidence, I don't suggest mixing these prints because it takes a daredevil to pull it off.

I put together some looks ranging from those who want to dip their toe into this trend to those ready to cannonball into the deep end.

To try this trend out, go with minimal leopard print paired with bold stripes. Subtle pops of print like in the shoes and accessories is a good way to transition into more daring styles.

For the fashion conscious people ready to tread water with this trend, add more leopard and use stripes to accessorize the outfit. It's a twist on this increasingly popular look which will turn a lot of heads.

 

Looking to dive head first into a pool of leopard and stripes? Half and half is about as daring as you can go with finding a balance between the two prints.
