Animal prints….but no leopard! The Thrifty Six

It was my time to choose a theme and I choose animal prints, but no leopard! That is way to easy and we see leopard print just about everywhere don’t we? Not that I mind, because I love a good leopard print. But it is time to show other animal prints here. Pre love that is of course!

Welcome to The Thrifty Six. We are a group of international fashion influencers who meet once a month in our little space on the internet to share our thrifty outfits. On the third Monday of every month, we will all share an outfit based on a theme that features pre loved wardrobe pieces. Shopping and reselling pre loved clothing is so much better for the environment and you can find some of the best fashions in thrift or charity shops. The Thrifty Six are here to inspire you to shop second hand.

Animal print…….but no leopard

When it is my turn to choose a theme, I check my closet and see what I haven’t shown yet with The Thrifty Six. ( It is on the blog though) And that was this animal print dress. It’s definitely not leopard but I am not quite sure what it is then. I think it is giraffe.

I bought it on Vinted and it is from a brand where I already got two fantatstic dresses from. I love the ruffles and the side split. I added the vest because it was still warm enough to wear the rather thin dress without a cardigan. And wore my beloved black leather boots. The pre loved necklace is actually a bit to much for my liking, but I love my gun metal cuff.

I have a lot of leopard print, but the animal print that comes in second for me is snake! I bought this Scotch and Soda suit on Thrift+ a few years ago. Unlike my other snake print pieces, this actually has intertwined snakes with googly eyes rather than the usual scaly pattern. I’ve featured it on the blog before with the same T-shirt and bag…one day I’ll get around to styling it differently!

I know my bootie collection is pushing the edges of space, but I couldn’t resist this pair while thrifting this summer. They had never been worn, so I snagged them and put together this dark outfit with pops of yellow.
The blouse, belt, purse, and of course, the booties are all secondhand.
In fact, I decorated the purse with a couple of charms and a scarf.

Keeping leopard out of the mix was a bit challenging! I styled a thrifted wrap with an elephant print over a preloved floral print dress. Then I added two secondhand necklaces that feature elephants and a pair of my thrifted cowgirl boots for this budget friendly mixed print mayhem.
