The Furla Large Cavalino Bag has just a touch of the animal print that is so prevalent on handbags and shoes this fall. The judicious use of the print is a welcome change for anyone who enjoys the look of the patterns but does not want to look as though they are toting around the entire animal. This particular bag has a black pebbled leather frame with a haircalf panel accented with several leather tassels. All the hardware, including some decorative rings, is silvertone and the lining is silk. It measures 8"x15"x3" and has a 9" drop to the double handles, which makes it easy to carry on a shoulder. Price: $390.

One of the hottest trends for fall is animal print and designers aren't shying away from making bold statements with the patterns. A perfect example is this Leopard-Print Satchel from Dolce & Gabbana. The large tote has a large, all-over hair-calf leopard print that is accentuated by the contrasting brown leather trim. The plainness of the solid colors actually makes the print "pop" out even more. Further accenting the bag are the gold chain insets on the shoulder strap and the leather tassels at either end of the bag. It has an open top with a slightly frayed edge, where designers may have been trying to add a touch of wildness to what is otherwise a very clean-lined bag. Price: $995.
