Leopard print is arguably one of my favorite patterns of all time. Officially defined as a “neutral,” leopard print is absolute perfection on shoes, handbags, belts, and for winter 2016…coats! The leopard coat makes a flawless debut just as the weather cools down and our fall style starts to slip into a rut of black sweaters and black pants…or maybe that’s just me. Don’t let gray skies and rain get you down, rock a leopard print trench coat, jacket, or bomber to revive your winter style.
I bought this leopard trench coat about 3 years ago from a thrift store in Montana. Being that it wasn’t quite suited for freezing weather and snow, it slowly migrated to the back of my closet. It wasn’t until a few days ago while I was shopping and saw leopard jackets left and right, that I thought, I have to buy a leopard coat! Then, I remembered I already had one…good job 21 year old me!
I love the versatility of leopard print because it can the focal point of an outfit or play a supporting role. The same goes for jackets. You can let your animal print make a statement or play it down with a pair of sneakers and a giant scarf, like I did.
Let’s take a look at some of my favorite leopard print coat styles!
Leopard Trench Coat
Similar to the style I’m wearing, a trench coat is ideal for a polished, chic look. The double breasted buttons and wrap around belt give that classic, old Hollywood look. Take note from Burberry whose leopard trench coat is already sold out – you can’t go wrong with this classic style!
Here are some leopard trench coats I love!
Leopard Bomber Jacket
You don’t have to be outdoors to enjoy this winter trend…grab a leopard bomber jacket. This style might be my next purchase. I love bomber jackets and some sassy spots might be just what I need. Layer underneath the bomber jacket during cold weather and pair with shorts in the summer!
Obsessed with these styles!
Long Leopard Pea Coat
A long, wool pea coat is best option to keep warm during the winter season. This type of jacket can be styled so many ways – casually with jeans, classic with a skirt, or edgy with a black beanie. A leopard pea coat will instantly give you that fashionable, it-girl look.
Here are some of my favorites!

Looks super cute on you (but glad the trend doesn’t seem to be spreading down here because I don’t think I could pull it off).
I’m so happy you pulled this leopard print coat out of your closet!! It’s great and definitely works so well for winter 2016!
