outfit details: Long Sleeve V-Neck Tulip Dress c/o Dynamite Clothing, Long Faux Fur Collar c/o Dynamite Clothing
The holidays have to be one of my favourite times of year, and this year I’ve really been getting into the holiday spirit. I’ve excitedly been creating holiday looks, enjoying holiday music, and seeking out those perfect gifts for my loved ones. Heck, I’ve even been tempted to grab an eggnog latte or two.
During the holidays, there are so many excuses to dress up and add a bit of glamour to your style. And, if there is anything that can quickly refresh a look and add a touch of glamour and a lot of attitude, it’s a fur collar. Now, don’t be throwing paint at me just yet – I don’t believe in wearing real fur, but faux fur is fair game! And this faux fur collar has been adding a lot of glamour into my style lately. Click through today and get Christmas party ready – as I am talking about holiday glamour and sharing how to incorporate a faux fur collar into your style!
How to Style a Faux Fur Collar
Swap Out Your Scarf for a Fur Collar
When it’s chilly out, you pretty much never see me without a scarf. That is, unless I am wearing my faux fur collar. These collars sub-in perfectly as a scarf and they are so soft and cozy. During the winter, I usually look at my scarves like how I look at necklaces during other times of the year; they are an accessory which adds a unique element to an outfit. A faux fur scarf is definitely a unique element and it will instantly take a casual dress, cardigan, or blazer and turn it into something glamorous.
Use it to Elevate a Simple Dress
If you’re heading to an event and want to wear a simple long sleeve dress like this Long Sleeve V-Neck Tulip Dress, then add on a faux fur scarf to elevate the look. Growing up, I always idolized classic beauties like Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn Monroe, and Elizabeth Taylor. I hoped to grow up and be able to exude that same sort of captivating, elegant, and enchanting sense of style. Collars like these always remind me of that old Hollywood glamour and it just feels natural to style them over a dress for an evening out or event.
Limit Your Faux Fur Pieces to 1 Per Outfit
If you have a fur collar on then be sure that’s the only fur piece you’re rocking. Styling a faux fur collar over a faux fur jacket is a bit of a faux fur overload, and it can take a look from being glam to looking cluttered.
Layer it Over a Cardigan or Blazer
Yep, you don’t need to look at this faux fur piece as just something you can wear to a holiday party or over a dress – you can easily wear it in your daily life, too. Try layering it over a cozy cardigan or on top of a chic blazer to bring that sense of attitude to your everyday style. I personally love the idea of wearing a fur collar with a suit to add a big statement to a power suit.
