With Each season's collections, numerous trends start to formulate as fashion week makes it way through each city. The trends you like you pay attention to and as fashion week ends you begin to see these trends making their way into the stores. There is a weird feeling of excitment when you realize that H&M has a 30 dollar garment inspired by a favorite trend and you grab it because it looks like that piece from Prada that you want in the moment but would never buy because it is a 'trend piece'. Then three months later it seems like everyone is wearing an odd version of a Prada inspired snakeskin or a faux fur piece and that trend loses all meaning.
I am not against wearing trends and I think all people should have access to them, it is hard to avoid them if you like fashion but I do think wearing trends just because they are trends looks a little silly. So when I picked up this pair of snakeskin denim from Gap I was a little surprised. Snakeskin isn't exactly my thing but the fact that the snakeskin print is just a few shades darker than the fabric makes me feel like it doesn't look so reptilian. Actually, I am happy I got them though, I like them quite a bit, especially paired with a waffle knit! I do not expect myself to be wearing any other snakeskin pieces though. Happy Holidays! Hugs!
