Spot On: Leopard Print as a Neutral - Michael's Consignment NYC

Spot On: Leopard Print as a Neutral

You probably have already noticed; leopard print is everywhere. This trend started to be big this past summer but it appears it’s still going to be sticking around into the fall/winter season. From the top of your head to your toes you can wear this bold print in literally any form. Although fall may be known for its endless array of neutral foliage colors, that doesn’t mean your autumn color palette has to be boring!  When you treat your leopard print as a neutral, the outfit possibilities are endless.

Our Favorite Vintage Fashion Icons

Everyone can remember that nostalgic feeling you get while watching Audrey Hepburn dressed as Holly Golightly strolling down Fifth Avenue in the early morning while the solemn notes of “Moon River” play in the background. Between the oversized Ray Ban sunglasses, huge pearl necklace, and iconic black dress, there was so much fashion to love from  Breakfast at Tiffany’s. And as designer Hubert Givenchy dressed Audrey Hepburn during the majority of her film career, it is no surprise that Audrey became the fashion icon that she still is today. So many wonderful women from the past have inspired the way we dress today. Today we’ll be sharing some of our favorite vintage fashion icons and how you can achieve their iconic looks.
