Everyone has a favorite animal — whether it’s your best friend trying to secure free drinks at the bar, or your roommate barking Ross Lynch at 2 a.m. Lucky for you feral animals, pelts and prints are in. Try channeling Snooki with a cheetah print dress or harnessing Gaston with a big fur coat. Either way, sharpen your claws and enter the jungle.
Hear My Roar: Want to make your look louder? Animal print is currently at the top of the food chain and we can see why. A mixture of neutral tans and browns, animal print is the primal pairing for your basics, whether you’re looking to elevate a black skirt or jeans.
Where the wild things are: Here’s where to hunt for animals — Abercrombie, Princess Polly, Edikted, White Fox Boutique, Mango, Pretty Little Thing and Urban Outfitters.
Jersey Shore Chic: what’s old can be made new again — formerly a Jersey Shore staple, animal print is making its way onto racks everywhere, letting people channel their inner 2010s Snooki.
In my natural habitat: animal print is the perfect blend of vintage, trendy and sexy; it’s effortlessly flattering while offering versatility that neutrals can only provide. While trends come and go, sexy is forever, and what is sexier than animal print?
Are you fur real?: Fur vests are an excellent way to incorporate animal print into your wardrobe while adhering to Miami’s blazing heat constrictions. An extravagant elevation to any look, with a belt and some jewelry, you’ll look like the king of the jungle.
Wild at heart: Why limit yourself only to cheetah print? The mighty jungle is full of a diverse array of species — from alligators to zebras or snakes. Bring the entire animal kingdom into your outfit.
Born to be Wild: How can you trust the newest trends; microtrends make it nearly impossible to always stay up to date. Keep an eye on microtrends to avoid investing in pieces that will be so cheugy in one month’s time.
