Snow Leopard For All Seasons

Pauline of Covered Perfectly has just released some refreshing looks in the animal motif trend that is still wildly popular. Her “Snow Leopard” print tops are classic with a beautiful and easy on the eye print. Being a mixture of winter white, black and grey, I feel that the snow leopard print has an ability to mix with more color palettes than the traditional cheetah and leopard patterns. The Snow Leopard is quite a versatile cat.

Covered Perfectly offers the Snow Leopard print in four styles. They are shown in the above photo. From left to right:  V-neck T-Top with three quarter sleeves,  scooped neck T-Top with three quarters sleeves, a gathered top and a duo tone (with black) flared bottom design. For the blog today, I picked the simple V-Neck T-Top to style and review.

All four tops are made of 96% Micromodal and 6% Spandex. “MicroModal® is something truly special. The fiber is made of European beechwood, is completely natural and produced in Austria. This natural composition makes it a breathable fabric, suitable for wearing close to the skin.”

“It’s described as the softest fabric in the world and is so gentle it feels like a second skin.  It’s super soft and luxurious, you will love it!”

Before I get started with a few ways I’ve been wearing my top, I want to talk a little bit about Pauline and her company. Pauline Durban founded Covered Perfectly about six years ago out of shopping frustration. At 57, she just couldn’t find tops that flattered her shape. Today she has a successful company that designs for classically aged ladies in sizes S-1X. Another important fact for me is that she makes all her clothes right here in the USA. They are excellent quality and if you want to try and be more environmentally conscience in your fashion choices, purchasing a piece from Covered Perfectly is a good way to start.

I immediately knew that the snow leopard print would seamlessly fit with a lot I already had. Everything that I am using with my new top is sourced from my closet. So let’s get started…

Just Going Simple

This top is such an eye catcher and elegant it looks great just thrown on with a favorite pair of jeans and shoes for a quick on-trend vibe. In my case it’s my four year old but essential Madewell dark denim skinny jeans, black Vince Camuto slip-ons and my essential basic black bag.

I’m showing three views of this top because I think it is the perfect length (I’m 5’5″ and am wearing a large) and flattering from all angles.

Covered Perfectly + Covered Perfectly

Mixing a new Covered Perfectly piece with one of my older ones is something I love doing. I think the Long & Lean Vest from last spring really complements my new top.

For contrast, I chose washed out black jeans from H&M’s 2018 Conscience Collection and added grey accessories (Coach bag and Rebecca Minkoff suede flats).

Adding the Basic Essential Black Blazer

When the weather is cooler, I can exchange the long vest with my essential black blazer from DKNY, which I purchased at Macy’s last year. For fun, I added one of my thrift shop finds from about ten years ago; an old Kate Spade grey fabric design bag.

Adding Some Color With Soft Pink

This is how I have mainly been wearing my Snow Leopard top. It’s a little dressier although I’m still wearing jeans; my Caslon skinny jeans from Nordstroms (now sold out). For a little extra flair, I added some cut velvet booties I picked up from TJ Maxx a couple of years ago.

It’s perfect with BB Dakota’s Teagan reversible jacket. The blush pink is sold out but the jacket is available in other colors which would go great too. I’ve worn it out to eat, shopping and meetings. This has been my perfect “go to” outfit.

Layering Over a Sleeveless Maxi Dress

I love layering. It stretches items from season to season. For fun, I pulled out a very old thrifted Eddie Bauer cotton maxi dress and threw my Snow Leopard top over it and added a silver chain belt (also thrifted). Black boots topped it off along with my black Rebecca Minkoff Leo clutch.

We have a little more black and white action going on in this photo. Let me please introduce Penny who decided she needed to be a model today and she does match me perfectly!
