Stylish notes on fashion :: Fabulous faux fur trimmings

fur cuffs via Banana Republic

I've loved a good faux trim for as long as I can remember. I had a wonderful black Carolina Herrera jacket that had a fur collar and cuffs that I lived in when I was in my 20s. It was sporty, chic and so comfortable. I'd not thought much about that coat recently but my love of all accessories faux fur has never since waned. I have many now and I wear each and every one of them lovingly. They are the perfect fall and winter accoutrement. They can dress up any outfit - a fur collar, scarf or cuffs can dramatically spice up your little black dress! Add a fur collar or cuffs to a cashmere sweater for a fun and festive look. I love the look with fur and dressed up denim... toss on a pair of pearl earrings, some great boots and voila, you're ready for a look that will take you through the holidays from daytime to nighttime!

The cuffs pictured above, from Banana Republic, are available online but not yet in stores. I cannot wait to get my hands into a pair!
