By itself, leopard print (like all animal prints) is quite bright, so the slightest bust with the number of additions, improperly chosen colors (like accessories, shoes, and the color of nails or lipstick) can completely destroy the image, making it cheap and vulgar .

It is best to complement the leopard-colored clothes with discreet accessories and shoes of classic pure colors. For example, black, beige, brown, gray, peach, white or sand colors and shades can become a win-win option. Almost always looks great combination of leopard dress and yellow accessories. Often you can find a statement that the leopard print is not compatible with the red. In fact, this is not entirely true. Matt textures of rich red color (not screaming) in combination with leopard print can create an unusually attractive, luxurious image. But to combine red with a leopard must be carefully - an unfortunate shade of red will transform the image from luxurious to vulgar.

Best of all, if the leopard dress will be a simple style, with a minimum of decor and ornaments. Simplicity of style and cut are more than offset by a bright print.

How to choose shoes and accessories for a leopard dress?

In the choice of color additions to the leopard dress should be guided by the principles described above. A very good addition to the image will be gold jewelry - bracelets, pendants, necklaces, earrings.

Unusually and stylishly looks a combination of a gentle, flying dress with a leopard print and a rough leather jacket or shoes. For the office, leopard dress is not the best choice. But if you really like this coloring, pay attention to models of restrained colors and style with leopard inserts. Or for a monochrome leopard print - because of the less similarity with the skin of a predator, this coloring looks more reserved. Office attire should be complemented with a jacket of calm tones and laconic accessories of good quality.

Do not complement the leopard dress with shoes and accessories of the same color - it often looks ridiculous.
