leopard and tiger print throw pillows bring an otherwise traditional living space to life!

a textured leather wall-covering adds texture and sophistication, while remaining simple and neutral.

incorporating a print from one of our feline jungle friends brings bold and biting style to any space, while still soft and feminine.

Here are a few of my favorite ferocious pieces at the moment:    

Saint Laurent Sunset Small Calf Hair Crossbody Bag -- There’s nothing tame about this leopard print calf hair crossbody! Whether styling with jeans and heels or an LBD, it definitely calls for a wild girls night out.

Ganni Bijou Leopard-Print Cotton-Poplin Wrap Dress -- Ganni continues to be a go-to brand for in-the-know trendsetters and I adore this take on their classic wrap dress. The ruffles and puff sleeves create just the right amount of drama to complement the feminine silhouette.

aquazzura alma pony-hair boots -- What better way for Aquazzura to express its more-is-more approach than with animal print? Ticking off a major Fall '18 trend, these 'Alma' boots have been made in Italy from smooth pony hair that's boldly patterned with tiger stripes and leopard spots. 

Horchow Leonardo Animal Pattern Rug -- This gorgeous rug delivers just a subtle dose of leopard, while still making a big style statement!

L’objet Leopard-Design Candleholder & Scented Candle -- What better way to have your decor say “hear me roar” than with a seductive scented candle that can serve as a standout accent in a living area, bathroom or closet?

gianni zebra-print wrap skirt -- Amanda Norgaard wore GANNI's 'Blakely' skirt to Copenhagen Fashion Week and playfully captioned her Instagram post with "a lioness disguised as a zebra." Made from stretchy brown and white silk-satin, it's cut in the brand's signature wrap shape and has a swishy asymmetric hem. Keep your accessories and makeup to a minimum when wearing the print from head-to-toe.

Massoud Camlo Leopard Bench -- I love how this bench’s rich leopard print is juxtaposed with light lucite legs. What a great piece to add dimension and texture to a hallway, entrance way or a dressing room.

aquazzura forever marlyn pumps -- Named after Marilyn Monroe, how could Aquazzura's pumps be anything but glamorous? This calf hair pair is set on high stiletto heels and has pointy toes to make your legs look longer.

isabel marant beeka leather shoulder bag -- The 'Beeka' bag is one of Isabel Marant's favorite shapes because it's practical yet original. This season it's updated in vibrant yellow snake-effect leather with contrasting smooth black trims and teal tassels. The interior has enough room for your cell phone, cardholder and keys.
