All right, so you may be thinking I'm pushing it posting about my trip to the Bronx Zoo, but bear with me (and pardon that pun, too).
Fashion by nature has long remained a staple. Evidently, there's longevity to this idea as trend reports continue to include cheetah, zebra, tiger and even giraffe printed anything. Even Gucci's Resort 2012 collection has been applauded for its use of zebra prints in a recent Style.com article.

My opinion? There isn't an animal/floral print I don't like. The colors, tones, shapes and textures are magnificently eccentric and beautiful, and I'm all for mimicking Mother Nature's style.
I ended up wearing a recently acquired top to the zoo - and not realizing I might have looked a little too into my outing rocking an animal print. I like to think I looked safari chic. Pink on pink?. I honestly didn't realize it was pink until I threw on the shorts - but didn't mind the "matchy-matchy" ness of my outfit.
Outfit:
Animal Print Top - Forever 21
Pink Shorts - Forever 21
Gold sandals - Zara
Messenger Bag - Macys
Leather cuff - H&M
As far as fashion goes, animal prints are timeless, add dimension to your wardrobe and have endless versatility. Tarzan ain't got nothing on this Tracy Reese number.

| Why are zebra's cool? Because they have mohawks. How very punk rock. |
 |
| Say it with me now... "Awe." |
 |
| The zoo has a Baboon Reserve that is one of the largest in the U.S. Work that fur, honey. |

| No joke, this photo is NOT a zoom. The tiger laid right next to the glass as I snapped a few pics. |
