Python Attack

What do you think of python skin prints on clothes? It’s a trend that keeps getting recycled along with different animal printsĀ  (tiger, zebra, cheetah) and marketed as a status luxury symbol. I don’t think there is ever a select season for animal prints, as we are constantly surrounded by them whether fashion magazines state they are In or Out.

Does your opinion about python skin change when it concerns bags? What do you think of the Prada Python Bag and the Marc Jacobs Python Patchwork Stam Bag?

    I am not into animal prints, I dont like’em… however, the python skin could pass for “best of the worst”.

    when it comes to animal prints, there’s a thin line between classy and trashy. So when I do shop for animal prints, I choose the item verrrry very carefuly. And I try not to over do it. only one item with one print in one look :) am I making sense?

    I actually like the MJ Stam bag.. but I’m not crazy about the prada one..

    Im not a fan of animal prints. I think people over do it sometimes. However, I must admit it suits some people better than others..

    What another one of those animal skin looks ? the only good thing about it is that I still have some from my youth and so they come out and are used and recycled whenever the fashion comes back which is always !!! So in a way let them keep it up as I am quite clever at changing them around a little to fit the newer look of the new style of skin wear! WOuld be nice if somebody can make human skin a fashion . Won’t that waffer alayna shwayyet masari!
