Leopard print accents are a chic way to add interest to a monotone outfit, and can be worn for day or evening when done right. Leopard print scarves have graced the shoulders of Sarah Jessica Parker (here on December 13 in Louis Vuitton) Kate Moss, Sienna Miller, and Ashley Olsen (try Fendi’s version, $219 at Forzieri.com). You can create a similar effect by pairing a leopard print airy blouse (we like the Sweet Pea Leopard Mesh Tie Short Sleeve Top, on sale for $49.50 at Bluefly.com, and Charlotte Tarantola’s Leopard Print Silk Camisole, on sale for $38.90 at Nordstrom.com) with a curve-hugging pencil skirt or black skinny jeans (our favorite our Siwy Jeans Rose Drainpipe in Jet, available at Revolveclothing.com for $198 - use coupon code “JT” for 15% off your purchase). For a toned-down version of the trend, try a an animal print enamel bangle, like the 1 1/2″ Ocelot Bangle by Coach ($148, also available in 3/4″ for $98). When wearing the trend on an article or clothing, remember to keep the pattern small and avoid colorful washes of the print. Although SJP tops off her look with a splash of color from her Christian Louboutin heels, we suggest keeping the rest of your look neutral (think grays, tans, and of course black).
