Whether you’re into it or not (we certainly are) snakeskin is all the rage for fall! From Prada to Chloé, many fashion houses used it as a focal point in their collections, and from what we gather, when it comes to styling more is definitely more. However, we know that not everyone is comfortable sporting straight off the runway looks so we’ve put together two very distinct ways to rock this trend on the streets without looking like you’re trying too hard. Whether soft and earthy or tough and hard there’s definitely a way to wear snakeskin for everyone this season. Which will you wear?

Blue jeans are classic, but those in-the-know are reaching for more eccentric picks when they shop for their denim, and that includes wild prints and exciting new textures. Printed denim is the latest-greatest thing to hit the denim trend circuit (you recall the floral craze that happening in the spring, and the latest Native American print trend bursting onto the scene). We’re seeing plenty of evidence that this element will be alive in well come autumn at PROJECT NY. Neuw and Big Star, for instance, are dishing out plenty of exciting options to choose from.
Check out Blue Star‘s take on this fun trend:
Neuw‘s damask print can really make a statement (just don’t wear them together and get confused for a curtain)
