Faux croc leather accessories @ Forever 21

Embossed Faux Crocodile
Handbag, $19.80, forever21.com.

Maybe I watched a few too many alligator/crocodile-killing reality show episodes, but their leathery skin replicas have become more appealing. 

Part of the new trends for fall and winter, Forever 21 has added several suave pieces like handbags, briefcases, and wallets made from "faux crocodile leather" also known as polyvinyl chloride or PVC. 

It's not exactly an eco-friendly faux leather, but faux leather usually uses less resources in its manufacturing process compared to real leather. And for the animal lovers, faux leather is the vegan choice.
