Leopard Print Shirt and Oversized Sweater for Fall

November 2, 2018

 

Affordable OOTD cozy sweater and leopard print shirtLeopard print. It’s everywhere. Each fall it comes back. This year I decided it was time to purchase a few leopard print pieces to add to my fall wardrobe. I wasn’t looking for a large leopard print coat, but a piece I could wear with layers and show a little leopard print. I was lucky enough to find a Theory leopard print shirt with a tie on the front. It’s perfect for dressing up with a leather jacket or wearing with an oversized sweater.

Cozy sweater for fall with a leopard print shirtI don’t know about you but I sometimes find it hard to incorporate trends like leopard print since they seem to take over an outfit. How to introduce pieces I could use in multiple seasons and to feature as part of an outfit, but not look like a wild animal? I wasn’t really sure how to do this until I found a few pieces that really fit this description. Let’s look at a few ways you add leopard print to your wardrobe without it taking over.

  • Find a SLEEVELESS BLOUSE. This can then be layered under sweaters or jackets.
  • Look for leopard print pattern SHOES. Shoes can be a great way to introduce a bold pattern without taking over an outfit.
  • Search for accessories like a SCARF or PURSE to add the pattern to your wardrobe.
  • Add leopard print TIGHTS to your wardrobe, this is an affordable way to the pattern into your everyday wardrobe.
  • Think about leopard print EARRINGS! I saw some cute ones that were round and looked great.

Black boots and jeans for fallNow again you might think, Tijana this isn’t one of your under $50 outfits. The shoes alone cost $70! I have had these boots for three winters now. They are still stylish and in great condition. These boots were an investment. Also I want to put it in perspective a little. If I bought the Theory leopard print shirt brand new it would have cost around $250! THE SHIRT ALONE. Thrift shopping allows me to own beautiful clothing at a discounted price. I am also able to purchase $70 boots since the clothing I purchase is so discounted.
