16 Leopard-Print Accessories All the Cool Girls Are Wearing Right Now
I can't believe I'm saying this, but the mid-2010s are back. No, it's not just because Kylie Jenner dyed her hair pink and whiplashed us all into remembering her King Kylie era. Leopard print has been sneakily making its way across my Pinterest board, TikTok feed, and, now, my closet.
This isn't your mother's leopard-print clothing, though—no need to pull out your lightly dusted silk midi skirts that catapulted this print back into stardom in 2015 and 2016. Instead, all of the It girls are opting to show their leopard-print love by way of pony-hair shoes and carefully curated shoes that scream timeless and not tacky.
With the rise of the mob wife aesthetic and over-the-top, gaudy, and flashy '80s and '90s references, leopard print feels like the one trend that has somehow escaped eye rolls within our office. While in Paris, fashion editor Jasmine Fox-Suliaman inquired about a leopard-print Jacquemus bag she'd been eyeing. Over the holidays, I picked up yet another pair of leopard-printed ballet flats, much to the dismay of my millennial sister who "didn't get it."
If you're looking to embrace controversy in a cool, It girl approved way this year, add a leopard-print piece or two to your wardrobe. Pre-game the animal print by incorporating a printed bag or pony-hair shoes into your outfit before going full-on Carmela Soprano with leopard-print jeans, coats, and dresses. Trust me—you won't want to miss this comeback.
