The Basic Elements of Safari Style

All you need for this type of style is some earth colors and tribal/ethnic accessories.  You can add a splash of jungle green, orange, teal, and/or gemstones.  See my Pinterest board, Urban Safari by Your True Self, to see the beautiful variations this can make.

  • If you have a basic safari shirt or safari jacket, you can use them with all sorts of things that you already have in your wardrobe to come up with a safari look.  You could also substitute a chambray shirt or jean jacket or olive utility jacket.
  • A utility vest or jacket may also be used.
  • For cool weather, the safari-style you can use a fleece shirt, jacket or vest.
  • Khaki pants are another basic.  Just use them with earth colors.  Alternatively, you could use cargo pants or utility pants or even earth-colored joggers.
  • Another way to begin creating a safari look is to start with any piece of clothing that is khaki or olive-colored.
  • Neutral, earth-toned colors with a tribal or animal print automatically create a safari feel.
  • Earthy textures to use are suede, burlap and raffia.  Natural fabrics include cotton, silk, gauze, linen and canvas.  You could even use faux fur.
  • Animal prints and African prints and Motifs in clothing and accessories are integral to safari style.
  • Add leather shoes, bags, belts, and jackets.
  • Extra touches are lush embroideries and exotic jewelry reminiscent of a maharaja.  Accessorize with wood, gold, ivory and gemstones.  Use either big, chunky beads and jewelry or else small and numerous pieces.  Wear a dozen or so bracelets at once.
  • To create a safari look, accessorize with bold, chunky pieces in wood, ivory, metallics and gemstones.  Try adding shoes, belts or bags in animal prints.  A cotton gauze scarf adds a cool, rustic touch.

A Formula for Creating a Safari Outfit

Start with a leopard-print shirt.

Add bottoms toned to a color in the shirt (or taupe, tan, brown or black bottoms).

You may then add a wide belt, a natural wedge, sandals with chunky heels or gladiator sandals in brown, tan or gold.

To finish the look, accessorize with one or more of the following:  one or more statement necklaces with a tribal vibe (big stones, rough metallic finish); dangling earrings with rough, imperfect colored beads and hammered metals; chunky and ethnic-style metal cuffs and/or rope bracelets; accessories with elephant, leopard or other safari animal motif; a casual bag (soft and slouchy is good, or a sporty tote or a cross-body bag or messenger bag).

Leather or canvas looks right with this jungle style.
