Exotic Beauty

Bottega Veneta

Add a bit of luxe to your wardrobe this fall, as exotic animal skins such as croc and python creep up and onto all accessories classifications. These are not your basics though, unexpected colors give a sense of freshness--just check out the bubble gum pink and cobalt blue above. Whether the real deal, or an embossment leather look alike, these exotic beauties will make anyone feel like the queen of the jungle --and don’t worry, they won’t bite.
