The Edit: Leopard Coat

Published by

If there is one item you need in your closet right now, it’s a rawr-worthy leopard coat. Now you may be thinking – leopard? Isn’t that for old ladies or the cast of the Jersey Shore? Well, no. The ferocious print has been spotted on the likes of Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid and Behati Prinsloo. Talk about an Angel trifecta!   Here’s how I took this statement piece and transformed it into everyday wear. Step 1: Grab a vintage looking band tee to instantly bring some rock n’ roll edge to your coat.

Step 3: If you like it, throw a camel coat (similar) on it! I decided to leave my coat open because of the length, but depending on your aesthetic caping it would be cool too. Step 4: Accessorize! Due to the chilly temps, I threw on my fave beanie (similar) and chain-adorned black leather booties (EXACT). I love …
