How to Wear Leopard Like a Fashion Girl

If there's one thing fashion girls are good at, it's layering. And as colder weather takes over, get ready for the oncoming turtleneck invasion. There's a reason though they are so beloved: they add a whisper-thin layer that not only keeps you warm, but adds contrast to whatever you're wearing on top. In this case, a leopard caftan (available in sizes 1X-3X) geared toward summertime does double duty as a statement dress perfect for Fall. Just add a turtleneck underneath — I'm obsessed with this bodysuit version (available sizes XS-XL) — for that cool layered look.

Instead of wearing your leopard top with a neutral, pair it with more leopard . . . and then a little more! The trick is to keep all the prints in the same color family (I say go classic) and play with different scales. This large-scale chunky sweater (available in sizes XXS-XXL) paired with a small scale leopard skirt(available in sizes 00-16) has a flirty French-girl quality cool girls love. Add leopard heels and the final look is matchy-matchy yet slightly off-kilter in a way that really works!
