In this blog I will share some tips for wearing leopard print with elegance and
style!

Leopard print comes into fashion and then it goes. Right now, it is a top trend! Leopard print is a chic and timeless print but needs to be worn thoughtfully, especially by ladies over a certain age, who want to keep own specific look sophisticated.

If you are unsure about how to wear leopard print, start by introducing some small pieces. You can do this by using accessories such as scarves, handbags, shoes, gloves and belts. Be careful of hats and sunglasses, as leopard print tones may not complement your skin tone, so it is best to keep them away from the face if unsure. A colour analysis will help you here. Introducing these subtle touches can add flair and fun to a neutral outfit, without overwhelming you.

Choose classic and timeless well-tailored pieces and wear an item of leopard print to create a striking look for instance a blouse, midi or pencil skirt or structured blazer. By wearing these classic pieces, you will keep your look polished.

Try pairing your leopard print with neutral colours. Leopard print pairs beautifully with neutrals such as black, white, beige,and grey. Wearing solid and understated colours with your leopard print creates balance and prevents the print from dominating your outfit.

Do not overdo it, limit leopard print to one statement piece in your outfit. Keep the rest of your outfit simple and use solid colours.

There are many different types of leopard print so choose a print that compliments you. You do not have to wear a big and bold print, instead you can opt for a smaller print or choose a pattern that
has a muted black or grey tone. This can really enhance the print and make it look far more sophisticated.

To tone down a leopard print top try wearing it with a solid blazer or cardigan over the top. This can make the print more versatile.

Always buy quality pieces. Buy in high quality fabrics like silk, cashmere or beautiful wool blends, these type of fabrics add a touch of sophistication, quality and wearability to the print, making it more
suitable for an elegant and sophisticated look.

Ensuring that your clothes are well fitted and tailored to your body shape. Never wear clothes that do not fit you well! A flattering fit enhances how you look and makes you look chic and ‘put together’, neither making you look casual or overwhelming you.

A good choice for adding leopard print to your wardrobe is by buying a leopard print statement coat or trench. Pair it with simple black or a monochrome outfit underneath and allow the coat to be
the focal point. Watch that outfit pop!

Always keep your hair and makeup polished. Leopard print can be bold and has that ‘look at me’ factor, so always go for polished natural makeup and neat hair. Avoid, dramatic makeup or hair as this is likely to compete with the overall look of the outfit. Always be aware of necklines and hair length too.

By taking note of these tips and by being intentional regarding your style and outfits you will be able to wear leopard print in a way that look stylish, modern and compliments your look.
