Trend to Try: Animal Print

The trends to pick from this year for fall are some of the best I've seen in a long while! There's something for almost every woman out there to try, no matter the style. My next favorite trend to watch out for - animal print. Now, I will admit animal print has always been a little bit out there, but even if you're not that fashion adventurous, there are ways to make this trend work for you. The key word here is making things SIMPLE. Animal print is already very bold on it's own, so you don't want to keep adding to it. The trick is to play it down with basic pieces. Solid black essentials are what you need when attempting to go animal print. Try pairing the leopard skirt below with a black tank or the leopard heels with skinny black jeans and a simple t-shirt. It's basic stuff like that that helps the trend to stand out more without going overboard and adds a certain sophistication to any animal print look. Animal print doesn't have to be tacky or even wild, it can now be molded to fit any style. It's certainly a great method for making a fashion statement this fall!
