Looking Good In Animal Print

Saturday, January 26th, 2008

When choosing animal print clothing be wary of the size of the print. Smaller prints look good on most people where as a larger print such as cow is much more difficult to wear.

One word of warning though, which ever part of the body you wear your animal print will become more prominent so avoid wearing tight print tops if you have a larger bosom, or tight print leggings and skirts if you are a bit ample around the hips and thighs.

To compliment your animal print chose a neutral colour such as black, white or cream, however if feeling a bit more daring vivid bright greens and pinks can look fabulous in contrast to a bold print.
