Animal Print Handbags

Animal Print Bags

Should I get an animal print handbag? Is this type of bag just a passing fashion trend or is it a classic piece every woman should have? Will a printed bag look good during all year or will it look seasonal and dated? Which animal print is right for me?

Animal prints are definitely here to stay. Just a cursory look at fashion history shows you animal prints nearly everywhere in clothes, linens, pictures, rugs, furniture, and handbags. According to one fan, "Handbags of animal print and exotic skin will be around for a long time; they offer so much versatility, classic style, and whimsy." A print is not limited to one season either. Just this year they made an appearance on the runway in both fall and spring fashion shows. Almost every major designer makes handbags based on animal skins and many also incorporate the prints into their clothing lines.

Which animal print is right for me? Giraffe, zebra, leopard, cheetah, or tiger - the variety of choices can be confusing and overwhelming if you aren't sure what you want. Leopard, cheetah, and zebra prints are the most popular and standard prints, but giraffe and tiger are gaining popularity as time goes on. The beauty of animal prints is their versatility and their ability to add instant interest and pizazz to an outfit. Deciding which design would suit you best is as simple as looking in your closet.

Do you wear a lot of bold, bright, or neon colors? A zebra print can perfectly accentuate your colors with its simple black and white. Gray also looks fabulous when paired with zebra. For those who like more earthy tones such as brown and green, a leopard or cheetah bag is the right choice for you. The orange, brown, and beige tinged yellow of those prints liven up an outfit without being overpowering. Tiger print is amazing with red. More common colors such as beige, white, and black also pair well with the striped pattern. Giraffe is a surprisingly neutral print that goes with a whole host of colors and styles. From bright colors to pastels to basic black, giraffe can transform them all into hip, yet classic fashion statements.
