Chill in the Air

After what has felt like an exceptionally mild month, this week there has been a distinct chill in the air and suddenly my standard coat, gloves, scarf and hat don't feel adequate; if I'm this cold NOW, what will I do when the snow and ice comes?

I used to hate faux fur, really, really hate it but over the last couple of years my tastes have once again changed, and this week I have serious cravings for all things cosy and strokeable.








The coats cost £65 and come from gigi vintage and the freedom hoods are from faux uk starting at £79.99...pricey, but they do look exceptionally handy for keeping both head AND neck warm!

Your thoughts on faux? Or fur in general...opening a whole can of worms here, I know.

As the owner of two faux fur coats I can only say I heart them! I used to think it was tacky.. but hey ho now I'm a convert! The black one is lush! xx

I definitely like faux fur. Wish I had more of it actually. So warm and cosy.

I do love those hoods <3

I love faux fur it's so warm and soft there's absolutely no need for animal fur to be used nowadays so I never buy new fur although I do have a couple vintage furs which have been passed down through the generations, but I do mostly try to buy animal friendly products where possible.

I guess that's kinda why I started making the animal scaves so I'd have something cute and 100% animal friendly to wear when it's cold. xoxo

I never used to like faux fur either but I've seen some stuff out this season that I love! I really want a fur lined scarf to pair with my leather jacket!
