Style pointers to use during the year of the snake

2013 marks the year of the snake in Chinese Astrology – and it seems as if fashion designers are on the same page. The trend that made a sizzling impression in Spring 2012 and this Fall/Winter, is slithering its way back in style for Spring and Summer 2013! The reptilian trend was widely received on the Spring 2013 runways of Gucci, Valentino and Reed Krakoff.

For those looking forward to incorporating snake print within their wardrobes in the coming months, try suggest keeping an eye out for snake print items that are on sale now. Whether it’s a clutch, a pair of shoes, or jewelry – purchasing the reptile inspired print now can save a headache later when the trend is fully priced again. Besides, buying and wearing a trend before it becomes majorly popular is never a bad thing.

When wearing snake print, its best not to wear the entire print from head to toe. For instance, if wearing a pair of snake print pants, try coordinating with a blouse or jacket in a contrasting color for a little boldness.
