This year, fall’s runways brought the snakeskin trend to life. From Chloe to Prada, almost all the designers had the spotlight on this exotic skin. Wild, provocative and effortlessly stylish serpentine pieces are a current rage and is taking over leopard as the must have animal print for the upcoming season. Though the runway looks can seem extreme in both price and style, it's easy to translate them into everyday outfits and the best part, you don't even need the real deal to achieve the look. When done right, a touch of raw animal appeal can turn every outfit into a total standout.

To pull off this tricky pattern without making a single faux paux, we suggest donning a single accent piece at a time. While we love a bold, attention grabbing python piece like a dress or jacket, the easiest way to get into the fall spirit is to dress up your look with a mix of python print accessories. If you are in the midst of planning your fall wardrobe, we suggest you snap up some these seductive snake print pieces to add just the right touch of luxury to your fall style.

1. Aldo Clutch:
   Add a python punch to almost any outfit with this petite faux handheld extra. The delicate chain accentuates the snake skin pattern and is the perfect piece to test drive the trend. The clutch is available in three shades, take your pick from a fiery red, a mysterious violet or a bold blue to add a hint of savage chic to your look.

2. Promod Dress:
   Ready to wholeheartedly answer the call of the wild, this dress from Promod is a definite attention grabber. With its playful print and party perfect silhouette, this dress is both smart and sexy. Intensify your nighttime style and wear it with your highest heels and a sleek clutch. For a less dressy option, tame it with a black blazer and some nude kitten heels.

3. Carlton London Flats:
   A traditional neutral skin goes with everything in your closet, whereas a colored skin puts your stems in the spotlight. These flats from Carlton London (Rs. 1495) are the sleekest alternative to heels and more fun than your basic black flats. Use them to dress up your cinched-waist shifts or just slip them on for a coffee run either way they are intensely refreshing.

4. Mango Tote:
   Mango reinvents the casual shopping tote with this colored snake shopper (Rs. 2290). Its stamped texture in an unexpected vibrant blue shade makes it a perfect piece to inject some excitement to your monochrome fall wardrobe. With its roomy interiors, playful hue and splendid reptilian print, this gorgeous purse can be by your side from morning until late night.

5. Zara Boots:
   Zara offers a sleek new iteration of the reptilian variety with these patterned python boots (Rs. 8990). We are slightly obsessed with these boots particularly because they remind us of the work-of-art boots that walked the Prada runways. The cut, the heel and the skillful mix of patterns make them insanely glam. So we're going all out and wearing these with our skinniest black jeans and a drapy tee during the day and enhancing the drama at night with a short dress.

6. Nine West Mary Jane Heels:
   The most popular way to wear the trend is with killer heels. A delightful mix of wild snakeskin and practical chunky heal, these mary jane heels from Nine West are sure to add a little pizzaz to your overall look. The contrast of teal with grey print makes them standout amongst their neutral counterparts. So classic when worn with a slim fitted skirt in the boardroom but more fun with a knit mini and sequin top.

7. Aldo Scarf:
   Looking to dabble just a little bit in the trend? Add a subtle accent to any outfit with a cool accessory like this Aldo scarf. It can be used to jazz up your beloved basics in a jiffy and is a great way to add visual interest to a trendy mixed neutral look.

8. Guess Cuff & Earrings:
   For an understated hint of the snakeskin trend get wrapped around in chic serpentine gems. Scaly skin accessories offer a cool and unexpected way to sneak this trend into your daily wardrobe. We love the idea of pulling the cuff over a full sleeve black sweater, to let ii speak volumes about your style. Turn up the volume on your LBD with these snakeskin crystal hoop earrings or use them to glam up your daily wear tee and jeans combo.

9. Zara Blazer & Pants:
   Zara has made it very easy to incorporate the trend in your everyday wardrobe with chic separates in subtle snakeskin prints. This Zara blazer (Rs. 5990) is a true show stopper and will look wildly chic with anything from jeans to trousers to sleek pencil skirts. Dare to push the fashion envelope by pairing this sharp blazer with a pair of black skinny leggings and sky high stilettos preferably in a shiny metallic hue or tone it down a bit for a more relaxed but an equally chic vibe by throwing it over a worn out tee with your khaki shorts & ankle boots.
   Couple the fierce print with a slimline silhouette and you've got a pair of pants (Rs. 2290) that could stop traffic on the streets. Dress them up with serious heels and a sassy colored top to hit two trends at once or team them up with a simple white silk tank, a solid blush tone blazer and black pumps to let the pants be the center of attention.

10. Mango Top:
    Snake-print fabrics can be a bit challenging and require more of a commitment, thought a little snake print top under a blazer is relatively easy to carry off and is a quick way to add some edginess to your look. This slim fit snake print tee (Rs. 1790) with a slightly high neck will look equally chic with a pair of trendy palazzo pants as it would with a maxi skirt for a sophisticated look.
