As always, one of our favorite Fall accessories involves an animal print. Leopard in particular is huge this fall and is the perfect way to add a little fun to your outfit. While the thought of wearing an animal print might make you a little nervous, it truly can be done tastefully. For example, Jackie Kennedy wore this leopard-print coat while serving as First Lady. Can you imagine the comments if a First Lady today took such a risk?!
This Kate Spade look is just perfect- skinny jeans with a sparkly tank, a rich chocolate brown not-too-slouchy hobo, all jazzed up with some leopard slingbacks. It's fun without trying too hard.
We've broken down our favorite animal accessories for Fall into Gold, Silver, and Bronze. As you will see, our designations are based upon price point alone, because many of our favorites of each category are not the most expensive!

I love animal prints; great post!
Great post! I love that animal prints have become somewhat of a classic. What I wouldn't give for a georgous coat like Jackie's!?
Great timing! I just looked in the mirror and decided my outfit needed a pop and that a leopard print skinny belt would do just the trick. Off to shop!
I just got a belt from JCrew outlet for $20- I really like :)
Love everything here! I have the skinny Jcrew belt and I wear it all the time! I think I need that Boden cardigan! Have you ever ordered from Boden?
