Cork the new leather?



Kors Michael Kors

Everyone from Christian Loubtain to Michael Kors is embracing the cork trend, from bags to shoes to prints this trend is being seen everywhere. It makes sense for summer accessories as neon hot pants and lacy blazers go well with anything cork inspired.

The look is reminiscent of lazy summer days, one imagines laying out at the beach with turquoise water, white sand and whiling away a sunny afternoon with an exotic cocktail in the Bahamas.

It's being called the new leather as it translates well into a patent shine material like the Michael Kors shoes (inset) or a nice nueatral accessory like the bag (top) which will pull together bold prints and colors.
