Let’s Dissect How Blogger Lizzy Van Der Ligt Wears Leopard Print And Flats A Zillion Times And Constantly Looks Amazing

Reasons to crush on Amsterdam based blogger Lizzy Van Der Ligt: she can make leopard print look stylish, not trashy, a thousand different ways. She’s got over 70,000 followers on Instagram. She has an inexhaustible collection of flats, and looks so damn good in them that you wonder why you ever sliced up your feet in stilettos. And she’s not even 25.

If you want to look as sassy in sneakers as sex-shoes, then take your cue from Lizzy’s laid-back style, or let us break it down for you in this week’s Debrief Dissects.

You can never have enough spots

Looking at Lizzy’s blog, it’s fair to assume that she has a vice. She has leopard print shoes, bras, bags, hats, bikinis, coats, suits and scarves... you name it, she’s got it with spots on, and can style it in a way you wouldn’t expect. Try contrasting the neutral print with jolts of orange and cobalt blue, keeping accessories dark to avoid too much going on in one look.

**White dungarees don’t have to make you look like a painter-decorator **

Few people under 6ft tall are brave enough to work the trickiest of all fashion items – the humble dungaree. And even fewer are brave enough to rock a white pair. The ladylike shoulder bag stop Lizzy looking like she’s about to whip out a paint brush and roller, while the monochrome trainers with flicks of gold add edge to the otherwise pared-back styling.

A henley-esque blazer won’t make you look like a posh twat

Say blazer, velvet and slippers, and images of stuffy old blokes in gentlemen’s clubs come to mind. But Lizzy’s boyfriend patchwork jeans, itsy bitsy bag and cross cutting stripes keep this blazer looking casual and modern.

Moccasins can be hot

When most girls might pair a tailored dress and posh handbag with a pair of uptight heels, Lizzy goes rogue, choosing a scarlet pair of suede moccasins. Keep your skirt short – the wrong length and you will kill the sex appeal.

Print mash-ups don’t have to be complicated

Pick a print (if you’re Lizzy, there’s only one option) and wear it top and bottom in different shades. Simples.
