We take a walk on the wild side with animal print this week as we dash back to the high street.
It's easy to go over the top with animal prints and some people badly replicate that "Bette Lynch" look. So we've teamed numerous items together to give a more stylish take on the trend.
If animal print seems a little daunting at first try something simple like the knit dress from Oasis with a faded print top underneath like the Topshop one pictured.
Reptile skin and animal print belts and accessories are a good way to ease you into the trend too.
There are plenty of belts available in stores to choose from, so whether you opt for the thick red reptile skin belt or the thinner replica zebra skin belt you are bound to stop people in their tracks.
Purses, bags and especially ballet pumps are a step in the right direction also. Wearing a simple plain outfit with a splash of leopard print to the feet just lifts the look and seams together effortlessly. The reptile print Warehouse clutch bags look really swanky, great for a special engagement.
For so long leopard print has been tarnished as "tacky", however, Laura Lee's take on the print looks wonderfully flattering. The dress is ultra feminine and sports Laura's distinctive embroidery, which gives the dress a unique alternative style. Laura Lee's leopard print autumn collection was designed exclusively for Topshop . . . however the range is limited edition so get to your local store ASAP!
The Oasis leopard print coat is this season's must have. The jacket is oh so stylish (plus very warm!) and looks great with slim cut jeans and a roll neck jumper underneath. So be brave and go wild this season with a little touch of animal magic!
