If you're like me, you just can't get enough Animal Print. I have been loving animal prints as far back as I can remember. I had a very fashionable Grandmother who wore it well; on handbags, faux fur jackets, costume jewelry. Everywhere you look there are gorgeous cheetah prints, leopard, zebra. I just get so excited when I see these prints on the runways in gold tones, black & white, rich mochas. I am crazy about the way its used as an all over print or as an accent to a sleeve or color blocking. It's become the new neutral. This is why animal print will ever go away.

I think each season every woman should go out and buy a fresh new piece for her wardrobe. My message to Boutique Owners: Don't shy away from this trend. It's here to stay.
