THE ULTIMATE TIMELESS JACKET : LEOPARD FAUX FUR

Reading:

Girrrl, if you know me at all, you know I love leopard print anything and everything! It’s really a shock this post hasn’t come sooner! I’ve been stockpiling leopard faux fur coats since ’06 and while my collection is now substantial, I seem to always find purpose and place for new additions! The size of the spots, the tone of the tan, the length, the fit, the details. You name it, I can’t get enough of all of the variations for this epic, timeless style of coat! You can heavily layer it for winter, throw it on over a tee for a simple Spring transition and of course rock it with your favorite knit for Fall! This universally flattering, timeless piece will easily serve you well for 3/4 of the year and will always be on trend and get a compliment when you step out the door!

I’ve said it before but I can’t stress it enough, leopard print is my absolute favorite neutral. Now you may be thinking… Neutral?! But I’m telling you… Yaaas! Neutral! This print goes with everything and can be pulled off by everyone. If you don’t believe me, just try it and I can confidently guarantee you that once you go leopard, you’ll never go back to boring basic neutrals. It is a much stronger statement than boring old black, white, grey or nude/tan! Whether you’re into all black, sleek leather looks, crisp whites or bold, pops of color, every palette pops when contrasted against a beautiful leopard print. I even like to pair my busy leopard print with other busy prints like these punk-inspired red plain pants that I picked up on a trip to the iconic Camden Market in London. Colorful floral, black and white stripes and gingham are a just a few other great print pairings for leopard that are perfect for on-trend Spring outfits! I’ve rounded up a dozen of my favorite leopard faux fur jackets available online now to guide you along your leopard-loving journey. Click any image below to shop!

the full story

Since Bowie was born I've been more motivated than ever to show up as the best version of me and also share the experiences of those who have a new perspective to share that could make us all better people. So with that, here's a space for you to learn, explore, and sit beside me as I navigate this world through this new lens. 

Content Creator. Mama to Bowie. Wife to Josh. Straight Talker. DIY'er. You may also know me from my roles in 90210 and Degrassi. 

Motherhood does a great job at putting a mirror up to you in the form of a child and because of that I've found myself gravitating toward spaces where I can learn and evolve as a person.
