With Chinese New Year 2014 on January 31st, these Chinese Zodiac inspirations are ways to incorporate the culture into your everyday life.
If you're someone who lives and breathes sneakers, there is no shortage of kicks inspired by the zodiac. For example, with the year of the Snake in its last month, there's still time to sport a pair of Vans Old Skool Pack or a pair of AF1 shoes created by Zhijun Wang that are both designed with a serpent inspiration.
Further, for people who like to ring in the New Year with a bottle of wine, stoppers that feature each of the zodiac animals will come in handy each year! For 2014, top off your favorite wine with the one with the horse head on top.
Wherever you are, there's always a way, subtle or bold, to be inspired by the Chinese Zodiac.
