Leopard print is what you would wear when you want to, say, go clubbing, seduce a date, or come off as a sexy and fierce vixen. It’s not what you wear to an outdoor fair with your husband and kids. Well, not unless you’re Gwen Stefani.

A Day Out in Leopard Print
The fashion-forward 44-year-old rock star, proudly showcasing her baby bump, confidently donned a striking leopard print ensemble for her family’s day out.
Embracing her bold style, she selected a stunning leopard print with an eye-catching, larger-than-life pattern that couldn’t be ignored.
Surprisingly, her outfit didn’t emanate the typical “sexy,” “fierce,” or “vixen” vibes that are often associated with leopard print. Instead, her leopard print ensemble exuded an effortlessly laid-back and relaxed charm.

Effortlessly Chic in Casual Pieces
Gwen Stefani’s leopard-taming technique? Casual and low-key pieces like a gray tank, tattered jeans, and a plain-Jane-ponytail do.
Tomboyish high-top sneakers (plus a poofy Pomeranian!) finished her toned-down leopard look.

Gavin Rossdale’s Laid-back Style
Gwen Stefani’s rocker beau, Gavin Rossdale, is also fond of accessorizing with a scarf, much like his fashion-mogul-slash-rocker-chick wife.
The two were spotted spending time with their kids at an outdoor fair in Lake Arrowhead last Sunday. While Gwen looked chic in her oversized cheetah-print sweater and patterned Tory Burch sneakers, Gavin was all casual and cool in his jeans and t-shirt.

He finished the outfit with a beige jacket, sunglasses, and a two-tone scarf tied around his neck. The combination was nothing special, but the touch of extra elevated his style a notch.
So, what do you think of Gavin’s daddy-on-duty style?

His scarf is more of a decoration than a neck warmer. It’s thin and knotted at one end. That said, we commend him for color coordinating with precision, as it perfectly matches the color of his jacket and sneakers.
What’s your significant other’s kind of casual style? Does he dress up and accessorize like Gavin here? Or does the idea of putting on a touch of something extra other than a pair of shoes fall far from his sartorial inclinations?
You can always add the last layer yourself if that’s a yes. Maybe a kiss here and a hug there will easily convince him to try it.
