Key Autumn 2014 Trend - The Faux Fur Bag!

Monday 6 October 2014

Who loves faux fur? WE LOVE FAUX FUR! Can't get enough of it actually so it's with open arms that we welcome faux fur as one of the key trends for Autumn 2014! Coloured faux fur can be a little tricky to pull off if your pastel fuzz loving levels don't quite reach Care Bear status, which is where faux fur accessories, such as bags, come in :)

I spotted this Pink Faux Fur Tote Bag (£34.99) from New Look a few weeks ago and wrestled with myself over whether to get the black or the pink. My thinking was obvs black is a bit more versatile, but is it really?! After a good think, I plumped for pink and I'm glad I did! The local park is looking beautiful right now, the absolute picture of crunchy leaved Autumn so I booted up and took my fluffy baby for a walk.

Outfit : Bag - c/o New Look, Coat - Reiss, Top - Joules, Shorts - H&M, Boots - Debenhams, Scarf (around bag handle) - Vivienne Westwood, Necklace - Mi Moneda, Watch - Daniel Wellington.

The pink is so easy to carry off! I was worried it might be a little too girly but the shade is really soft and warm and not acky baby pink at all. The fur is gorgeous, you can see how thick it is and the gold accents finish it off nicely, whilst inside the bag has a large zip compartment and a phone pocket. The perfect AW14 faux fur accessory!

Anyone else up for a bit of faux fur this season?

  4. Great autumn outfit! Only recently in the past few years have I really been into faux fur, because it normally doesn't look too nice to me, but I love this bag. The pink colour is a good choice from the traditional black. :)

  5. I love that shade of pink! I really like the idea of a faux fur clutch bag, Whistles had some gorge (but pricey!) ones x

  10. Aww thanks Sophie! If I had my way the gold accents wouldn't be there so it was a bit more versatile but hey, mixed metals are in this season so I'll deal with it!
    I know right? Isn't he the cutest!

  11. Faux fur has really come a long way in the last few years. If you have the budget it's worth looking into Unreal Fur, the coats are around £200 but they feel amazing! :)

  12. I love him!
    Totally subtle. I kind of outgrew baby pink in my early twenties but this just really caught my eye! :)
