Giraffe Print Purses

The latest buzz in the fashion world is the introduction of a bigger variety of animal prints this season, which is greatly focused on the giraffe print. Some critics believe that this animal print is actually a little on the tacky side, while others believe that it’s a wonderful addition to a timeless classic print.

What makes these critics so largely against giraffe prints is the fact that too many people get carried away with it. A few small accents of giraffe print, like on a purse or a pair of shoes, is one thing. To dress from head to toe in giraffe print items is completely another. You are pretty much making yourself look like a miniature giraffe, and this is not good.

To make the giraffe print look trendy, you need to pick a few crucial items that can be used for contrast in your wardrobe. A pair of shoes , a purse, and a few pieces of jewelry is all you need. If you want to make a little louder of a fashion statement, you can go for a wrap or hat. You can even try some animal print hair extensions if you want to be daring. Most importantly, you do not have to wear every single giraffe print item that you own all at once! This completely defeats the purpose of complimenting other items in your wardrobe.

Trendy vs tacky is really in the eye of the beholder. Obviously, if you think the miniature giraffe look is too much, chances are you will think it is tacky. If you tend to gravitate toward more subtle looks, you will find giraffe prints rather trendy. Don’t let these fashion weirdos ruin the look for you. Giraffe prints are now on their way to the classic animal print hall of fame.

I ran across a few different post debating similar topics here and here.
