Now that it's actually fall, we can talk about fall trends, and first up is animal print. I'd argue that as far as animal prints go—especially leopard—they're more of a classic than a trend. That said, there are all sorts of different animal prints out there this season, like zebra, snake, and cheetah, and some of my favorite takes on the trend play with color and scale, as well as pattern. Here are some fresh new ways to wear animal print for fall 2018.
1. This is one of the pricer items in this post, but with a neutral color scheme and three-season weight, it's probably one of the most versatile. I am always a fan of layering with a blazer, and this one takes a classic unstructured silhouette and puts just enough trend into it with a subdued zebra print.

2. While this print may look like leopard to you, it's actually more of a cheetah (true leopard spots are more like donuts). Either way, I've been looking for a leopard-print boot for awhile, and between this one's calf-hair fabrication and chunky low heel, it looks pretty much perfect. (They also come in snake.)

3. This sweater completely exaggerates leopard print with a large scale and almost shockingly bold color, and it's just kooky enough to work.
Lovers + Friends speak up sweater, $148
4. I've always wanted one of the Stephen Sprouse leopard-print scarves from Louis Vuitton, but the price has given me pause ($800 for a scarf?!). This one captures a similarly abstract spirit, but with a much more palatable price.
Sole Society leopard-print scarf $29.95
5. Ganni is known for its leopard prints (I've featured their dress and coat), but I think they do zebra pretty well too. I love the mod feel of this dress, which would work for both day and night, work and weekend.

6. Would you believe this very polished-looking wide-leg pants are actually a jacquard leopard print? They are! I think it's such an unexpected way to wear the trend.
Whistles animal-print pants $259
7. Topshop is doing all manner of animal prints this season—at totally reasonable prices—and one of my favorites is this subdued zebra-print midi skirt. It's so classic and flattering, what's not to love?
Topshop zebra maxi skirt $75
8. I've been obsessed with this Zara maxi dress since I saw it on a blogger friend's Instagram feed. It's currently sitting in my shopping bag, and while I don't exactly need another maxi dress, I love how refined it looks—it could even get dressed up for nighttime.

Loving all your selections. And I agree, animal print is as much a classic as floral print - it's not going anywhere!
Thanks for linking up with the Fabulous Friday link-up!
