How to Wear Leopard
Leopard remains one of fashion’s most reliable prints because it changes with you. It can read polished, playful, graphic, or cool, and it works across seasons because it doesn’t need a full outfit built around it. One leopard piece can do the job: it adds texture, breaks up basics, and gives familiar silhouettes a different edge. These are the ways leopard is being worn now.
The Leopard Shoe
A leopard shoe brings instant personality to a look. It’s the kind of piece that makes everything else feel more interesting — whether you’re leaning into soft neutrals, classic black, or a hit of bold color. Set against fluid satin, bare skin, or clean tailoring, the print adds warmth and contrast that keeps the look from feeling flat. Flats read graphic and cool; heels feel sleek and sharp, especially with a dress or something softly draped.
The Leopard Bag
A leopard bag has range. It brings energy to sleek silhouettes — especially when paired with sheer layers, sharp jackets, or wide-leg linen pants — giving dressed-up looks a bit of edge. Smaller bags feel punchy; slouchier shapes feel effortless, making leopard the piece that ties a look together.
The Leopard Layer
Leopard used as a layer changes the entire mood of a look. A leopard jacket over a black slip dress feels instantly elevated, while leopard trousers paired with leather bring in texture and contrast. Set against clean black or soft neutrals, the print adds depth and movement that shifts the whole look.
The Leopard Accent
This is where leopard becomes a styling trick. A pillbox hat or a leopard hair accessory adds pattern exactly where you want it, while a bold necklace anchors the look and keeps it feeling dressed.
The Takeaway
Leopard works best when it’s treated like a wardrobe staple: a few strong pieces you can rotate in whenever an outfit needs texture, contrast, or a little attitude.

The Lunch Reservation Edit
Outfit Details: Wiggy Kit Dress, Janessa Leone Hat, Loewe Sunglasses, Miu Miu Flats (similar here and here), Wiggy Kit Dress, Retrosuperfuture Sunglasses, Similar Tote Here
One of my favorite parts of traveling is discovering new restaurants. Not just for the food, but for the way the room comes together through color, table settings, and the menus. Before we head to a reservation, I almost always look up the restaurant first, partly to get excited, but also so I have a sense of the vibe I want to dress for.
For me, the perfect lunch look is a colorful daytime dress, dressed up ever so slightly with a bag that has some ruffles or raffia texture. A stripe that plays off the room, embroidery, sunglasses that add to the look instead of hiding behind them. Small choices, but they make lunch feel like the kind of thing you got dressed for.

Dressed for the Afterglow
Outfit Details: Rixo Dress, Miu Miu Bag, Ancient Greek Sandals, Carolina Bucci Necklace (similar, less expensive here and here)
There’s a specific kind of dressing that only happens as the sun starts to drop. The light goes warm and low, everything picks up a little shine, and I want to be wearing something that catches it.
That instinct is exactly what pulled me toward this Rixo dress. Between the mirrored embroidery and the rainbow watercolor effect, it’s the kind of piece that feels special without trying too hard. Fun, a little dazzling, easy to fall for. This edit follows the same idea. Every piece has some shine, sparkle, or bit of embellishment that comes alive as the day winds down, all in those warm, glowy tones that feel just right for July nights.

Amazon Sundays: Get Ahead on Back to School
This week’s Amazon Sunday is all about getting ahead on back-to-school supplies while summer is still very much happening. I’m soaking up the last of it, but the first day always has a way of sneaking up right behind me. The idea is to have the necessities prepped and ready to go now, so that when the morning actually comes, the only thing left to think about is packing lunch.
I pulled together the pieces that make the transition feel easier, from a lunchbox that keeps everything fresh to craft supplies and notebooks. Then all the things that keep routines organized, like a label maker, family calendar, and a restock on my favorite stain treater.
Browse the full selection below, and explore more in our JB Amazon Shop and Amazon Storefront, refreshed weekly.
Personalized Backpack
A personalized backpack makes the first day feel a little more official, and it is one of those pieces that feels just as useful for school mornings as it does for weekend activities.
Kids Art Smock
An art smock is exactly the kind of small thing you are happy to have before the projects start coming home, keeping paint, markers, and glue a little more contained from the very beginning of the school year.
