Fall is almost here and animal print is once again 'in'. Does it really ever go out of style? My answer is no. The trick is to use it sparingly. I am a huge fan of animal print and have to exercise restraint so I don't drape myself from head to toe. Just a touch is all it takes. A pair of shoes, a scarf, accent jewlery pieces, a handbag, etc.

Do you know who else loves animal print? Mother nature. In fact, she is the world's best designer. A brand new leopard species was discovered this year called 'The clouded leopard of Borneo'. It is such a gorgeous pattern, I am thiking of having someone custom make fabric that can be used for an item of clothing. Enjoy the picture and have fun with animal print this fall!
