The One Print You Can (And Should) Scour Vintage Shops For

There is simply no fashion debate quite like the classy or trashy question surrounding leopard print. Throughout the last sixty or so years, this print has swerved in and out of style as it made its way from chic fur coats in the ’60s to spandex leggings in the ’90s. While it’s easy to rest on your morals and avoid the print forever, the word on the street says this trend is back and it’s not going anywhere anytime soon. Or at least I hope it is since I’ve got one (or three) leopard print coats just begging to be released from my closet.

It may not be the most practical piece on your wish list, but there’s something to say about leopard print’s ability to bring out your inner wild child. For those days when you’re a little down and out, a leopard print accent can do wonders to make you feel ready to take on any challenge. The ultimate game changer is that leopard print has the innate ability to heighten just about any outfit with little effort necessary. Whether you’re feeling some vintage denim and a basic tee or a little black dress and a pair of killer heels, throwing on a leopard jacket will guarantee a winning look.

So… are you perusing the Web for the leopard print coat of your dreams? If I haven’t convinced you yet, check out these Fashionistas who aren’t afraid to be a little wild here and there.
