We don’t like fast fashion, and shopping, although one of our favourite pass times, should be done in a meaningful way. Therefore loads of trend pieces, must haves and Tik Tok aesthetics are to be avoided where possible. But, sometimes, sometimes a classic, old friend, reappears and it’s time to jump in.
Enter animal print. Blame Chanel mania, or our two favourite aesthetics of the summer ‘Hot Divorcee’ and ‘Rich eccentric aunt’ but animal print is having a moment this summer. There is probably some already in your wardrobe and there are definitely a number of pieces that will be brought back to life with a touch of animal print.
Not since Jenna Lyons gave us Breton stripes and leopard print layers have we fallen so hard.
The shops are full of of trawling the stores, or the hauls, we’re inspired by looks, and feelings.
Kate Moss is of course our animal print muse and a hazy 70’s feel…
Small bursts, luxe fabrics and softer, sheer pieces give a more elevated feel.
Shoes and bags are the perfect way to dip your toe into the wild side…
Our go-to for shoes is Annonymous Copenhagen
and for bags its one of our pre-loved favourites The Hosta
And then, it is summer, so we are going for swimwear. This Zimmerman print is not too orange, not too yellow, its puurrrrfect!
