Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Easy Outfit Combination- Black + Denim + Leopard

February 21, 2019 by Katie Haller

Black jeans, denim shirt and leopard print
Today I’m talking about one of the easiest outfit combinations ever!  All you need is something black, something denim and sometimes leopard.  This is one of my go-to looks when I want to feel stylish and feel confident in my outfit.  It can be done with pants, dresses, skirts, shorts… really anything.  Today I’m sharing 2 looks wearing the same base clothes (top and bottom).  My top is a chambray shirt and my bottoms are a pair of high wasted black jeans.  One look is for the day and the other is for the night.

Look #1- Day look

For this look, I accessorized with my leopard loafers and a black satchel purse.  The larger purse and the flat shoes make the outfit a little more casual and more appropriate for the day.  It’s perfect for wearing anywhere.  It could be worn for work or if you want to look a little more put together while you run errands. I always love a good pair of leopard print shoes.  They can really make any look pop!

Look #2- Evening look

All I did to make this look more appropriate for the evening was switch out the flats for a pair of heels and the satchel purse for a leopard clutch.  This is a look I would wear if I was going out with friends in the evening or a date night with my husband.  It’s a very simple way to turn your day look into an evening look. 
Like I said, this combination is so simple and you can wear it in so many other ways.  It doesn’t take many pieces to complete it.  My biggest tip for putting together this combination is to keep it simple.  Don’t over-accessorize.  The leopard gives the look a big enough statement, so you don’t want to over-accessorize.  Also don’t mix your leopard.  I find that all you need is one leopard print accessory.  Mixing different leopard prints would just be too busy.
