Animal prints are still going strong for F/W 2016. To the far left is the royal blue at home ensemble I wore quite a bit in FW 2015. This was one of my favorite outfits and I will continue to wear it well into FW 2016. I will change the hat to the Black reversible leopard shown below and exchange the moto boots for the black Munro ankle boots I invested in FW 2014. (They look somewhat brown in this picture but they are really black).
This is a good example of a simple change in accessories freshening a look. It is also a prime example of why I keep a rather large selection of accessories.
The cap is totally reversible and can be all black or all leopard should I choose to wear it that way. I do have leopard boots also, and as you can see, a leopard handbag. My personal styling preferences would prevent me from wearing any more than two items in my ensemble with this print, but I might opt to wear the leopard vest and boots and a solid black handbag and cap. I also have leopard bracelets and earrings, all tucked away for the appropriate ensemble.
I swear by Munro shoes; they are the most comfortable footwear. They are the absolute perfect heel; high enough to add sophistication and length to my somewhat short legs, and low enough to wear all day. I have several pair of Munro shoes, and I love them all.
I mentioned earlier that animal prints are continuing the trend through out the fall and winter. I have also seen a few looks in Resort wear 2017.
I do not have much in the way of colored animal prints (1 pair of red snakeskin narrow legged pants) but I do have a lot of the neutrals. I do enjoy the animal prints and treat them as a classic; they always return to style, and most of my animal prints are conservatively cut. (I do expect the rage to die down within a season or two and lay dormant until the rage again re-appears).
As you can see, I keep a few accessories in animal prints. In addition to the pictured items, I also have the brown leopard in a silk fabric. I also have the black and white tiger print in silk.
Of course, I have to have a leopard handbag. It has paid for itself many times over the years. I will probably always love it as a statement look with all black pieces; the same is true of the Kors grey snake skin handbag. I always love it with my grey capsule pieces
