Style Inspiration: Leopard, Stripes & Polka Dots


In the world of fashion, some classics and neutrals aren’t always what we would initially consider to be items that can be worn year after year without ever appearing out of style. Leopards and polka dots, however, fit the definition of classic prints that will always be in style. What should always be given attention is how we wear them. Leopard ballet flats – yes, polka dot slippers – no. Silk polka dot blouse – yes, leopard dress – not really.  As you can see, while all of these might be trending on the runway at one time or another, the leopard ballet flats and the polka dot blouse will always be able to be worn depending upon what we wear them with.

Below are some classic wardrobes involving stripes, leopard, polka and a few extra ideas to help inspire you as you pull together your next outfit. Happy shopping!

  3. My next spring/summer fashion purchase will be a fedora. I think it will be a great idea while lounging poolside - keeps my face in the shade and looks great.
    Great fashion picks Shannon, thank you!

  4. I just got a polka dot skirt. And all the Emerson Fry clothing is just great. I purchased one of her Indian dresses (on sale now). So lovely! I really enjoy your Thursday inspirations...
