Fab Tip: Faux Fur, Snip Snip
Sienna Miller's Topshop faux fur coat looked amazing on her (as does Anja Rubik's, left), but it reminded me that faux fur coats often overpower. A while back I bought one, a faux rabbit, and now I know why I haven't given it much wear — it makes me feel gaudy. Thanks to the cold weather recently, it hit me: I couldn't just let that gorgeous brown faux fur sit there, alone.
Look of the Day: Fall Fur
One of the best things about Autumn is dressing up in warm, cuddly clothes. That's exactly what deuxfashion did today. Her vintage Fall fur vest looks luxe and luscious.
Is Naomi Posing In Dennis Basso's Fur Ad Hypocritical?
Naomi Campbell has everyone talking again. The once-PETA poster girl has hooked up with fur designer Dennis Basso to model his Fall '09 ad campaign. "During these economic times, we wanted to take the opportunity to be noticed — to show we are here and here to stay," Basso said.
Carla Bruni-Sarkozy Goes Antianimal, Hermes Goes Pro
Carla Bruni-Sarkozy has the pick of the litter when it comes to wearing sumptuous designer creations but her selection might be a little more limited now that she's vowed to be more animal friendly. "I do not wear, buy, or own fur or animal skin other than leather or skin of animals raised for feeding purposes. I am not a vegetarian and I don't find it illogical to wear skins of animals whose meat is also eaten."
On Our Radar: Jason Wu's Exclusive Collections
Look out people: Jason Wu's set to add two new collections to his existing line next year: an eight-piece capsule collection dubbed The Exclusives and a special fur line.
The Exclusives line will specialize in carrying popular silhouettes that can be custom-made in different colors and prints to fit individual retailers' needs. “As the collection grows, the runway shows start to become more directional,” said Wu.
Celebrity Style: Claudia Schiffer
On the heels of her Spring Yves Saint Laurent ad release, Claudia struts her supermodel stuff in a perfectly layered ensemble. Her street style is absolutely admirable. While not everyone can pull off cropped pants and ankle boots — I only recommend that if you're tall and/or lanky — there are other creative things going on here.
Trend Alert: The Blonde Chubby
Fun, fun, and fun. Nothing says Casino glamour like the blonde chubby. This is something I think Sharon Stone's turbulent character wore several of throughout the Scorsese film, and, she looked fabulous.
Can You Tell the Difference Between Real and Faux Fur?
I can. But, according to sources, Kate Winslet, an anti-fur advocate, didn't feel the difference when posing au naturel for Vanity Fair. Pre-photo shoot, the magazine told Winslet the blanket was faux.
Freaky or Fabulous? PETA Protests the Olsen Book Signing
Many of us are influenced by the Olsens, be it Mary-Kate or Ashley. But clearly PETA isn't. In fact, members of the organization stood in front of Barnes & Noble in New York City's Union Square yesterday to protest the girls' book, Influence.
Trend Alert: Fuzzy Vests
Rachel Zoe lives in them, Kate Moss dabbles in them and I kinda want to give one a whirl. When cold weather comes a knockin' anything fuzzy nurtures the style soul. If you don't want a full on fur jacket or coat, a fuzzy vest can nip that cold in the bud.
