Animal Print Toppers: Over 35 Outfit Ideas for Any Time of Year

Animal prints are good for all seasons. They come in many different colors and materials. Neutral leopard prints dominate. But these prints can easily be found in bright colors and some have floral or tropical images mixed right in. This post on animal print toppers is part of a series created for all women. Age doesn’t matter when you’ve got style!

For toppers, think jackets, cardigans, kimonos, dusters, vests, etc. These toppers are divided into sections of outfit combinations below. In the ideas following, I have used leopard print as the topper simply because it fits the color scheme of the rest of the outfit. But I’m sure any animal print can be used just as well as leopard, which just happens to be the most widely available.

Create an Outfit With an Animal-Print Jacket

1. Wear a leopard-print jacket with black, cream, denim, plaid or florals.
2. Mix a leopard-print jacket with a striped top. Both prints go with everything, so naturally they will go with each other!
3. A leopard jacket + a floral skirt. You might like to add a belt (i.e., a chain belt, coin belt, studded belt, or whatever you like.)
4. A purple tank top + blue jeans + a leopard swing jacket.
5. Wear a leopard jacket with a black, lacy tank top partially tucked into blue jeans and black bottoms or blue jeans. Layer gold pendants.
6. Top a graphic t-shirt and blue jeans with a leopard jacket. If the weather is cool, add tall black boots + a black belt + a black chain-link bag. You might even like to throw on a dog tag necklace! If warm, add wedge sandals, a delicate chain necklace and gold cuff bracelet and maybe a brown or tan belt.

   

7. An animal-print jacket+ a lacy white camisole + blue jeans. Add gold delicate necklaces in neckline + booties.
8. Wear a leopard velvet jacket over a black tank or tee and blue jeans. You may then add black or animal-print sneakers or black oxfords
9. A leopard jacket + a navy top + black faux leather pants.
10. A black crewneck sweater + blue jeans + a leopard jacket. Add black gloves.
11. Wear an animal-print jacket over a black turtleneck and black skirt or pants. Add a black belt + a choker or necklace.
12. A leopard jacket over a black top & bottom. Add black shoes + a gold necklace, such as a long coin necklace + gold bracelet & earrings.

As an Evening Jacket:

1. Wear a leopard-print blazer over a black maxi dress. Add a cuff bracelet or two + a short, gold pendant in the neckline.
2. A leopard jacket + a black top + a black skirt or black maxi dress. Add a wide belt over the jacket (you might leave the jacket open a bit under the belt.) Finish with animal-print boots + an animal-print scarf.
3. Wear a leopard jacket over a black tunic and black leggings. Add heeled sandals.
4. A leopard jacket + black lacy tank + black pants or jeans. Add a delicate gold necklace or two + narrow gold bangles.

Outfits With an Animal-Print Vest

1. A black lace top + jeans + an animal-print vest. Add jewelry of your choice and a hat.
2. For a unique color pairing, wear a leopard-print vest over a purple top.
3. Here’s an idea for neutral colors:  a leopard-print faux fur vest over a brown top or cardigan + grey pants. Add a scarf that tones to the vest. Finish with your favorite boots.
4. An animal-print fur vest over a cream turtleneck + white skinnies. Add over-the-knee boots.
5. Wear an animal-print fur vest over a black turtleneck and blue jeans.
6. An animal-print chiffon vest + a white top + blue jeans or any black pants. Add dangle earrings.

   

7. A leopard vest (i.e., a draped vest or fur) + a long-sleeve brown t-shirt + khaki or tan pants. Add a bead bracelet (or more) toned to the colors in your outfit. Push up your sleeves. Finish with peep-toe booties.
8. A leopard vest over a red dress. Add colorful bangles. You might like to wear brown tights and flat brown sandals with this.
9. Wear a leopard vest over a grey, aqua or teal Henley top and jeans. Add boots, belt and a  Cowrie shell bracelet.
10. A printed top + a leopard vest + charcoal pants or leggings. You might like to add flat sandals.
11. An animal-print vest (such as a draped vest or fur) + a white shirt + blue jeans.
12. For evening:  Warm up a long-sleeve black maxi dress with a leopard fur vest. Add black booties.

Outfits Using Animal-Print Cardigans

1. Animal-print cardigan + a black shirt + blue jeans. Add a choker and sneakers for a cool, casual look.
2. An animal-print cardigan + a longer-length white blouse + animal-print leggings. Add flats.
3. Add an animal-print cardigan over a column of black (i.e., a black top and black bottom.)
