I love neutrals.
I love animal prints.
I love texture.
This season they all come together
to create a simple, but sophisticated “Safari” look.
Textured sweaters and chunky necklaces complete the look.
Animal prints are never out of fashion!
But just a touch will do.
They are so much more effective when used with a little restraint.
The safari look is really based on a pared down men’s style.
This Old Ralph Lauren Ad Campaign Photo from 1984
illustrates perfectly what safari style has been for women throughout the yearsi
Now you have a chance to update the look for real life.
I know you’ve got plenty of black, brown and khaki in your closet.
Why not take a few pieces, put them together and shop for the perfect accent-
something like the little bamboo clutch or a great chunky necklace or cuff.
Or try some whimsy and add a straw hat and boots.
Mix old with new
You can even use your solid colors together and pop them with an animal print scarf-
or animal prints shoes.
Experiment and see what new looks you can create.
Remember- our look is “Simple Safari”.
Go light on the animal prints and heavy on the textures.
Enough said…..
