If you’ve been waiting for the perfect chance to jump on the recent resurgence of the animal print trend, but don’t want to ruffle your rather conservative feathers, look no further. Animal print jewelry sounds like a strange concept, but if you’re too wary of wilder accessories like leopard shoes or zebra cardigans, consider jewelry the perfect happy medium to dabble in wilder prints without committing to the riskier look. After all, animal print had been banished to the tacky land of failed fads for awhile, so baby steps are a smart way to ease into accepting that the look is stylish yet again. Leopard print gets some added texture with this Yochi leather calf-hair cuff, while high-contrast zebra print is best when worn subtly like this silver striped ring by Gorjana or these budget-friendly sparkly earrings from Forever 21. Giraffe print has never gotten the same fashion exposure as leopard print, so it’s time for some new spots to shine in the form of Kenneth Jay Lane enamel earrings, or a bold tribal-inspired bead and disc necklace!

Love those hoop earrings. Yeah, you definitely don’t see giraffe that often. Wonder why?
