Animal Magnetism

Year on year animal prints prowl down the catwalks of the top fashion houses. Luxurious patterns inspired by some of natures most beautiful creatures, leopard, tiger, zebra and more recently giraffe. This season is no exception, from couture to high street there is an animal print lurking somewhere near you.

It could be a coat, boots or shoes, there are handbags and accessories galore sporting this style of print.
Even lips and nails can't escape the magnetism of the animal print.

Although I like to indulge in the wearing of leopard, tiger and even zebra on occasion (not all at once I hasten to add, and of course only the fake variety) It is in my home where I really like to go wild. Once upon a time I lounged in the beauty that is an all white interior, the light, the space, not to mention the dirty finger marks around light switches. After a while though I felt I wanted to create a more, well, warm and cosy atmosphere, something with texture and pattern.

Wallpaper. Not quite an animal print but a lovely metallic linear paper all the same!

Just to indulge myself (and you) here are some more images embracing the animal print theme. Grrrrrr!
