Animal Sweaters

With fall around the corner,  I can’t wait to wear some of the new trends floating around the pages of my go-to magazines. My standout favorites are the adorable animal sweaters I’ve seen everywhere. The prints remind me of embroidery you would see on pillows, but they are placed on basic sweaters. At first thought, they may seem childish, but the trick is in the styling. Pair them with pencil skirts and pumps for the office or leather pants and booties for the streets. They would even be fab with a pair of lace shorts for the warm-ish days during the transition into fall. Bottom line – have fun with this trend! ♥

    Great picks! At 5’2″, I’m a little wary of wearing sweaters like these and appearing as if I just graduated from elementary school, but I think you make an excellent point about styling. With a sleek pencil skirt and heels, these sweaters would be totally office-appropriate. I’m really tempted to pick up #2.

    These sweaters are too adorable! I thought when I saw them appear on the runway at Burberry last winter that it might be a popular trend. Love the penguin sweater.
