If you’ve been around here a while then you know how much I love my animal prints. So I’m pretty excited about the revival of snakeskin this season (though truthfully it never goes out of style for me). Snakeskin often appears on accessory items like purses and shoes — and I don’t think that ever goes out of style — but this season snakeskin prints are popping up on bolder pieces like blouses, skirts and pants. Here are some tips on how to wear this trend.
No. 1. // Same Color Family. If you are feeling nervous about wearing snakeskin, try to pair your print with other items in the same color family. This isn’t a rule, but it’s a helpful guideline so you push boundaries without going too far out of your comfort zone.
No. 2. // Wear With Neutrals. I incorporate snakeskin whenever I want to give an otherwise neutral or boring color scheme pop. A snakeskin print goes very well with neutrals like black, brown, taupe, and ivory.
No. 3. // Choose One Bold Item. Finally, the most important thing advice I would give about incorporating any animal print into your wardrobe is to not go overboard. Choose just ONE item to add a pop to an otherwise neutral outfit especially if the animal print is on a bold piece like a sweater, blouse, or pants. Any more than that and your outfit can easily become chaotic and distracting rather than chic and pulled-together.
What do you think of the snakeskin trend? Will you wear it?
