 We know that animal prints are a major trend this fall season. From snakeskin boots to leopard blouses, our fall outfits will look as if we are ready to go on a safari. A print that is not as mainstream but still holds the chicness of the animal kingdom is the zebra print. This autumn season I am being bold and stepping out with my zebra printed skirt. I wasn’t looking for such a unique print, but once I stumbled upon this beautiful skirt (under $100!) I knew it was one I was going to throw on time and time again.  (more…)

A trend that has been slithering into our closet each fall season is the snakeskin print. Although it has been around for decades, I feel it’s become more of a staple piece rather than a trend. It’s the new leopard print as a classic, neutral look that pops. But just like the leopard print, snakeskin can range from classy to tacky as it depends on the style, fabric, color and the print itself. It’s a judgement call to make really. I have always preferred leopard over snakeskin but last year something in me sparked an interested in the wild print and have been coveting pieces ever since. This fall season I have been looking at different skirts, dresses, and boots to purchase. I finally bought these boots (haven’t arrived yet so not sure if they will work for me yet); as for a skirt I have yet to find the perfect piece for me. For a dress I am dying to get this one from Rotate . With its statement sleeve and fit and flare silhouette, I know I would live in it. If going all head to toe snakeskin is a little too much for you, try styling an outfit with a simple snakeskin purse or belt. Personally I would love to be able to pull off this snakeskin trench coat; it’s an item I believe Jackie Kennedy would wear paired with a chic all black ensemble, her famous oversized sunglasses, and Gucci mules. At least that is how I pictured myself styling the coat. However you style this exotic print, add a few snakeskin items to your wardrobe.

An item that will stand the test of time is the classic tweed jacket. No longer are they only for the professionals or for your mom. They can be cool, young, and chic. Tweed jackets are versatile and can cater to your aesthetics and style. In the fall I always opt for a tweed jacket to throw on over a tank and a pair of jeans, or even my faux leather leggings. It is a casual yet elevated look. Over the years I have collected a growing number of tweed jackets and I don’t think I will ever stop coveting new ones.  From the Coco Chanel pieces of the 1920’s to today’s modern take, tweed jackets are a classic piece that will always be in trend.
