Fall 2010 Trends - Chunky Necklaces

I attended my first Fashion Group International Arizona Chapter (FGI) meeting tonight. The focus of the meeting was the 2010 Fall fashion trends report. We viewed a short film showcasing the common threads seen on the runway, and then FGI picked the top ten things that will translate to the market.

I'm going to post my favorite trends as the week goes on, and my first pick is the chunky necklace.

I've never owned an item that had an animal print on it. This year may be the first because I'm diggin' the leopard print.

There are, however, a lot of leopard leggings, sweaters and shirts out there if you're wanting to make a big statement. So, what do you think...are you over the animal prints or are you just getting into it like me?
