A touch of leopard print

Fashion - By Alexandra Stedman
T-shirt: $78, RE/DONE. Dungarees: H&M (old but buy similar from Topshop here). Sunglasses: £23.99, Vision Direct. Bag: J Crew (old but buy similar here). Shoes: £47.60 in the sale, Boden. Photograph: Christopher O’Donnell

What’s my failsafe fashion look? I’d say denim, stripes and a splash of leopard print. For me, it never goes out of style and can pull together any look. Even just a hint – a cross body bag, a heel or a shirt can add a touch of cool. 

Shirt: £7.99, H&M. Shorts: River Island (old but buy similar from Urban Outfitters here). Trainers: £49.50, Marks & Spencer. 

So with the inbetween seasons and not quite knowing how to deal with Autumn Winter yet, here’s a post on my favourite trend that will be in fashion all year round (and trust me, a leopard coat will be a good winter buy – I have my eye on this Boden version to add to my collection). All hail the mighty leopard print!

1. Coat: £85, Topshop


2. Breton top: £14.90, Uniqlo


3. Calf hair bag: £198, J Crew


4. 9ct gold initial necklace: £250, Laura Lee


5. Ponyskin bow front flats: £79.50, Boden


6. Cropped jeans: £29.99, H&M


7. Block heel shoes: £60, Office


8. Steel mesh watch: £175, Skagen

    Hi Alex.
    Don't suppose you will be doing a winter coat post anytime soon? Could do with some advice before I splash out! 😉

      Hey! Oh I totally should! I will work on it….meanwhile some brands I have looking at lately (and seen some great coats from are: French Connection for a good crombie, Baukjen for a great wraparound and Comptoir des Cotonniers – all good investments). I have ordered the leopard Boden one as well and hoping it's a good 'un! x

      I know, I realised because I always wear it I had never considered it a trend – MISTAKE! This has been my favourite post to collate!

    I recently found your J Crew leopard bag whilst on holiday in the US on sale for $39! Such a bargain – haven't taken it off since! X

      What a bargain! I remember thinking it was a little pricey when I got it but still, cost per wear it was worth it! x

    I love your blog and your style! I couldn't seem to see the Boden coat fron the link – is it the Sally leopard coat? Thanks so much!
