IT IS A JUNGLE OUT THERE - HOW I WORE MY ANIMAL PRINT TROUSER SUIT

 Hello dear friends, hope you are doing well.

Two months of spring already behind us but the air is quite fresh and I won't leave the house without a jacket or a jumper to keep me warm.

I bought this animal print pant suit from Zara at the beginning of Spring but haven't had a chance to share it with you.  This style is totally sold out but there are plenty of similar prints are still on offer like this animal print blazer and trousers . I was worried that I will not wear it often enough before the weather really heats up but I was wrong.  

It's 100% linen and we all know the multiple benefits of natural fibers.  The print is quite bold and busy as you can see, so not much embellishment in terms of accessories is actually required so I chose a simple black satin camisole to wear underneath the blazer and just a pair of simple silver earrings.  

Of course, I could've gone all monochromatic but it is spring and I wanted to have fun so I chose red platform shoes that I also bought recently on a whim.  I was in the shopping centre in a gloomy mood and when I saw those shoes through the window of Edward Meller shop in a happy red colour I felt irresistible urge to bring this feeling of happiness home.

The heels are quite high but they are balanced by the thickness of the platform which levels the height and makes them feel very comfortable.  Honestly, I can't even remember when the last time was that I bought high heel shoes, it must've been years.

I recently read an article about what makes French fashionistas look so effortlessly stylish , one of them being that French women prefer not to match their footwear with their handbags, but I like my version of matching accessories so the red shoes and a handbag it is.  

Where do you stand on wearing matching accessories?  Please share your thoughts in the comment section below.

Until then,

Anna
