For
those who follow the Chinese zodiac, the year of the
snake begins Feb. 10. People born under this sign are
thought to be more likely to be seductive, gregarious,
charming, smart, good with money and, at times, a little
jealous. The reptiles themselves are beautiful,
sometimes dangerous, creatures that have inspired
countless designers over the years. Here are some ways
to incorporate the symbol of the year into your
wardrobe, with no harm done to any living creature.
It’s
hard not to turn heads in Equipment’s Sloane crewneck
cashmere sweater, $298 from Nordstrom, with its
snakeskin print in neon yellow.
The
Sabine print midi dress, $36.99 from Piperlime.com,
makes for a fun twist on the classic floral print, flowy
dress for spring.
The
Eight Sixty snake print high-low blouse, $96 from
RonHerman.com, features a contrast collar that gives the
blouse a little more edge.
Pair
