Default Dooney Bags: More animal prints!

Hehe... I was walking through Von Maur and I saw a huge display of new Dooney. Well, if you liked the Zebra bags... then perhaps you will like the giraffe.

They aren't on Dooney's website yet... so I got a pic from Von Maur's site.
I personally don't know what to make of this bag. Animal prints are supposed to be in again this year... but why is it a giraffe print?

I thought the zebra print looked okay with the red trim... on a smaller bag or wristlet (not on the huge bags... that was just gawdy). But then when I saw the bag in person... I kinda wanted to puke! LOL! The material feels all rubbery and they actually carved lines into the bag to represent the nap of the hair. The giraffe material is the same way. I just don't understand why its giraffe... why not a normal animal like leopard? And then have it be canvas instead of rubber!
