I recently found myself doing one of my favorite things: flipping through old photos. There’s something so comforting about revisiting those little snapshots of life: the people I was with, the places I’d been, and, of course, what we were all wearing. The way my brain is wired, I can’t help but notice the outfits right alongside the memories.
Looking back, I can see how my style has evolved over the years. Some pieces still feel timeless; others are clearly from another era. But one detail popped up again and again: animal print. Of course, my love of animal prints has come a long way since the days of playing dress-up at Club Libby Lu in my cheetah boa (such fond memories). I now gravitate toward more refined takes, focusing on shape, color, and texture. It’s safe to say that animal print has always held a special place in both my heart and my closet.
This fall, it’s everywhere again, and there really is something for everyone—whether you want a bold leopard coat, a chic snakeskin boot, or a subtle cow-print bag. I’ve rounded up 35 pieces I’m genuinely excited to wear, and I know you’ll find a favorite too.
For the price, I mean… These practically style themselves.
I own these and can confirm they are as cool as they look.
Maybe it’s the Midwest in me, but this bag is perfect.
The bomber silhouette + the leopard = an instant fall staple.
The outfit for your next night out is sorted.
Timeless, with just the right amount of interest from the asymmetric vamp.
A welcome alternative to plain black boots.
A personal favorite on this list. Invest in it now and thank yourself later.
I love the idea of pairing this tiger-print bag with red or another punchy color.
I always appreciate a comfortable shoe. Wear these with a dress, to the office, out for a drink… The possibilities are endless.
The perfect way to dip your toe into the animal-print trend this fall. Plus, it's on sale.
Every It girl has this dress. And for good reason.
These all fall (and winter).
Small, but impactful.
Just as comfortable as they are stylish.
Picturing this with a chunky baby-pink mohair sweater and some suede boots. It’s so good.
I’m convinced that tiger print is zebra’s cooler older sister.
Incredibly elegant.
The perfect marriage of powder blue and snakeskin. Guaranteed to get you stopped in the streets.
We’ve talked about this. Red is a neutral this season.
Crocodile leather will forever be that girl.
So much interest in such a simple shoe.
Loving the dramatic neckline of this coat.
So many chic ways to style this: tied around your head, shoulders, or neck.
I am oh so into chore coats.
The mesh is so cool-girl coded.
If you have these, there is a high chance I will be breaking into your house to steal them.
Make all your maximalist dreams come true!
The cat's meow.
I recently saw someone in the wild wearing this (see what I did there) and have not been able to get it out of my head. With black pumps, this was epic.
Shop the matching Teller Mini Skirt ($229).
Incredibly fun.
These are major. I love an unexpected shoe, and these mules are just that.
An understated statement piece.
The silhouette is just so good. Picture these with dark denim and a crisp white button-down.
Consider this your new go-to date-night top. Are you convinced leopard print is basically a neutral yet?
So much yes here.
