Something that was originally reserved for women’s outerwear pieces or party dresses is making a foray into the men’s divisions. From leopard print bow ties to button down shirts it’s obvious that the print is here to stay for awhile. To keep from looking like any of our friends from the Jersey Shore I’d recommend keeping it simple. They pair well with denim if they’re a more casual look like mine, or also look great with black pants if you’re going out for the night. Rappers like Kanye West and Drake have been on board for awhile now, so are you ready to take a walk on the wide side in some animal print of your own?

Digital prints were a show stopper this season, from camouflage to animal print. They were in collections from Phillip Lim for Target to Burberry Prorsum on the A/W 13 runways. So when I saw this WeSC sweatshirt when I was placing some orders for work I knew that I couldn’t pass it up. I’ve always been a fan on animal print, but this new take on it is a fun new way to mix it up. Prints like this are usually something men’s fashion tends to stray away from, but over the last few years we’re seeing more and more of it. Our style world is seeing an evolution of sorts, and I couldn’t be more excited about it!
