MXMIf there is one must-have print this season, it’s animal-print. You definitely need to get your hands on at least one subtle item of clothing or an accessory. We think leopard-print shoes are totally hot and we’re also loving this purple animal-print top from MXM (shop for it here). It’s the perfect combination of this season’s bright hue trend and funky leopard-print.

BEWARE: This is a tricky trend for any woman. You definitely don’t want to be suited up from head-to-toe in animal-print gear but a few accents here and there can brighten up your wardrobe and shake things up a little. In a black-and-white-outfit rut? Opt for a funky print to jazz up your look. Besides, it’s totally on trend.

Designers like DSqaured2 and Balmain set the tone this season with subtle dabs of colourful animal-print here and there. Even our LOULOU collection by Addition Elle has fallen for animal-prints.

Still iffy about making this trend a part of your wardrobe? Watch our video with LOULOU’s editor-in-chief, Claude Laframboise, to find out how to incorporate this hot trend into your everyday wardrobe.
