Leopard-Print Skirts Are Trending This Spring—4 Tasteful Ways I'm Styling Mine
Spring is just around the corner and I couldn't be more excited. Freshly topped up with inspiration from the fashion crowds in Milan, Paris, New York and London, I'm ready to cast aside my heavy layers and indulge in some new-season trends. Newly inspired by all the leopard print I've spotted on some of the chicest women and runways lately, I'm in the market for a statement skirt in the trending pattern. Having seen it styled up for fancy occasions and dressed down for casual looks, this current yet timeless print is proving to be one of the most versatile of the season.
As such, I've found four of the chicest styles on the market. In a trending midi length, these skirts all offer endless styling options, but if you're looking for some concise outfit inspiration, read on to discover the very tasteful (if I do say so myself) ways I'll be wearing my leopard print skirt this spring.
HOW I'M WEARING MY LEOPARD-PRINT SKIRT THIS SEASON
1. ELEVATED EVERYDAY
Style Notes: For daily spring styling, no combination is chicer than a trench coat and midi skirt. Tapping into the leopard print trend, this longline skirt does all the hard work for you, meaning that it pairs well with wardrobe basics such as vest tops and tees to complete the look. To add further new-season edge, pop on some heeled Mary Janes.
SHOP THE LOOK:
Trust me, Ganni's leopard print skirt is destined to sell out quickly.
Mary Janes are having a major moment this spring, and this pointed-toe pair is the perfect way to dip your toe (literally) into the trend.
Don't underestimate the outfit-elevating power of a classic black belt.
2. SPRING EVENINGS
Style Notes: One of my favourite spring styling formulas is a longline strapless top with a flowing midi skirt. This coherent and streamlined silhouette looks elevated every time and dresses up easily with low heels and gold jewels.
SHOP THE LOOK:
Style this sleek top with baggy jeans when you're not wearing it with leopard.
Leopard print skirts are trending hard right now, and this is one of my favourites.
This sculptural bag is an easy way to add some interest into a casual look.
Stack up with plain bands or wear on its own.
3. WEEKEND ERRANDS
Style Notes: Mark my words: this spring, every Londoner will be styling their leopard print pieces with blue denim and colourful trainers. This simple combination taps into growing and enduring trends for an elevated look that will have you feeling comfortable and put-together every single time.
SHOP THE LOOK:
Oversized denim jackets are ideal for warmer-weather casual 'fits.
Trust me: this is the perfect white T-shirt.
Wear with chic ballet flats or colourful trainers.
Burgundy bags are trending this season, and this elegant baguette style is at the top of my wish list.
Colourful trainers are everywhere, and I can't get over this vibrant red pair.
4. FRENCH FLAIR
Style Notes: Before the warmer weather ramps up, keep your favourite knit to hand for easy transseasonal styling. A fitted cardigan will complement the printed skirt whilst keeping you cosy, and once you add knee-high boots and '90s-style sunglasses, there's something so irresistibly French about this outfit.
SHOP THE LOOK:
The kitten-heel height makes these a comfortable alternative to high heels.
