Sharyn GreensteinYou may not be going on a safari this fall (or anywhere else for that matter) but you can get in the spirit of exotic travel by adding some animal prints to your wardrobe. Animal prints have been on-trend for so many years now that they are considered wardrobe staples. Adding one piece to your outfit will help you look instantly chic without too much effort.
Fall 2020 animal prints seen on the runways include leopard, zebra, tiger, snakeskin, giraffe and even cow. There are cozy sweaters and hoodies for days spent lounging at home, and dressier blouses perfect for zoom calls and nights out. Wear an animal print jacket over a neutral outfit for an easy, stylish look. Choose an accessory like a pair of shoes or a scarf if you would prefer just a touch of the jungle. Below is my curated selection of animal print clothing and accessories to add to your wardrobe this fall and continue wearing year after year.
With pleated detailing, an elastic waist and pullover styling, this relaxed fit blouse from Anthropologie will be one you want to wear often. The olive and cream color way is on trend for fall and soft on the eyes.
Cloth and Stone Sora Blouse $98
This knit hoodie sits just above the hip for a modern, stylish fit. Would look great with black jeans or leggings. Available in petite and plus as well. Currently on sale.
Striking the right balance between sophistication and playfulness, NY based Design History crafts fashion-forward staples that epitomize modern femininity. This zebra sweater is cozy and ideal whether you are lounging on the couch or enjoying an evening out. Currently on sale!
The Yale Chelsie Boot by Marc Fisher is my all-time favorite bootie. With a pointed toe that elongates the body, and the perfect 1 1/2 inch heel for added height and all day wear, it is hard to beat for the price. I own three pairs, but am tempted to add this snake print to my collection! Would look fabulous with an all black ensemble. 40% off this week!
I bought a similar leopard faux fur short jacket about a decade ago and wear it year after year. With an open front, shawl collar and cozy fabric, it will elevate any outfit. This one by Love Token is 63% off at Nordstrom Rack while it lasts.
Boyfriend blazers continue to be very on-trend for fall. Throw this one over jeans and a tee shirt to add warmth and style to your outfit. And it’s under $40!
Mules are the perfect transition shoe between seasons. This one by Marc Fisher will look great now with white denim and in the fall with an otherwise neutral outfit for a pop of animal print. 40% off through 8/30.
Turn up the volume on softness and style with this hoodie pullover from Alternative. Made with organic cotton and recycled water bottles, you can feel extra good about buying this one! With flare sleeves and a short-but-not-too-cropped length, it will pair well with leggings and denim. Half off at Nordstrom Rack.
Small square silk scarves are very versatile. You can wrap one on a hand bag, knot it over your ponytail, or tie it around your neck. The navy and white stripe on the edge of this one adds a unique punch of color.
With an easy elastic waistband and slightly below the knee length, this skirt can be worn for a variety of occasions. Whether you pair it with a bright sweater or a knotted-at-the-waist graphic tee, you will feel comfortable and stylish. 25% off right now.
