The animal/exotic print is a trend that’s back with a vengeance this 2010. It’s nice to see it on shoes, handbags, and on coats to some extent, but the print isn’t really something that’s easy to mix and match with other trends. It could probably go with the military look, but even so, a lot of careful planning is needed.
So what more if we take an animal/exotic print and mix it with our favorite fringe? Common sense will tell you that the typically powerful print will totally clash with the typically laidback fringe. Then someone like Miranda Kerr blows everything out of the water and proves that the two can be worn with absolutely no effort at all.
Of course, it also helps that she’s got the body and the face of a supermodel:

Miranda Kerr paired her loose dress with extra large tiger print with a cross body fringe mini bag. She risked mixing the two clashing trends, kept everything else simple, yet still looks better than at least 99% of the population in these pictures.
Think you don’t have to be a supermodel to pull of the fringe + animal print combo? Here’s a fringed mini bag like Miranda’s:
