Houndstooth and Leopard: pattern-mixing

Posted on October 17, 2019 by carmen

Two of my favourite prints together

Just by coincidence, in my previous post, I wore leopard print leggings and houndstooth leggings, which are two of my favourite prints.

I love the look of classic houndstooth. Leopard print is timeless, after all, leopards have been wearing these spots since the beginning of time.

I never would have thought to combine leopard and houndstooth. This top blends both patterns in black and white, one flows into the other seamlessly–so unique.

We’re enjoying an Indian summer, temperatures dropped drastically after a torrential storm. Then warmed up again and I can wear my sandals once more. I don’t want to pack them away till it snows.

Do you have a favourite print?

    Hi Carmen , how are you? I would never have thought of using houndstooth and leopard print together but you have pulled it off and it looks amazing! They really look great with the black leggings and the cute sandals ❤️ I love how you styled your hair up. I am glad you were getting some nice weather , and I hope it’s still staying good. My favorite print has to be Floral but I think you know that already! Have a beautiful day Terri xoxo

    I love your jersey, the print is very original and beautiful. It is perfect with your tight pants, that you always look so personal attractive. And I love your hairstyle, not very usual in your photos, you look really beautiful!

    Such a pretty, polished, and sophisticated casual look. I love it! I would say my favorite print is probably florals.

    Enjoy this warmth as long as you can. Also here it is still mild and we don’t need heating. As it rains a lot no sandals but no jumpers just yet.I love it too, not freezing when you get out of bed. 🙂

    It’s funny how when a piece has the two prints together, we can immediately embrace it. But wouldn’t always think to pair them in the first place. Just love this Carmen,
