Animal print: the new neutral

Animal print. Some love it. Some hate it. Leopard, cheetah, tiger, and more are in this season and there’s (almost) no avoiding them.

I love a good animal print top, but more often, I wear printed shoes - flats, sandals and sneakers. I have leopard flats and snakeskin sneakers. Animal print shoes are a fun way to add texture and interest to any look, whether it be a simple neutral palate, or the classic red-and-leopard print shown above. They can be worn with jeans, pants and skirts. In fact, I used to wear animal print shoes all the time in my corporate-office-job because it made getting dressed so much more fun. These days, I love my snakeskin sneakers when I’m out and about with the kids. It takes an average, neutral look to the next level.

If you’re not sure where to start with animal prints, shoes are a great option. Choose a versatile pair of flats and give it a go! If you’re already an animal fan, check out my Pinterest board for more outfit ideas.
