Faux fur stoles are so in right
now. They ward off the chill, whilst adding a touch of old school Hollywood
glamour to your look – so they’re great for winter. If you’re thinking about
buying one in the next few months, keep reading, as Luxe Models reveals five
ways to wear a faux fur stole….
Draped over your shoulders
With a plain dress
Faux fur stoles make a big
statement – so they work really well with simpler pieces. If you team a
gorgeous black faux fur stole with a chic plain white dress, for example, you
can really jazz up your look. If you go with this, don’t be afraid to team it
with big stiletto heels and over-sized shades, for that true A-list look.
Cinched with a belt
If it’s really windy outside, you
might want to think about holding the stole down with a classy, understated
belt. Be sure to opt for a thin belt – we’ve found that if you team this
statement neckwear with a chunkier belt, it’ll detract from the sheer beauty of
the stole.
Pinned down
The best way to channel the 40s
movie star vibe that’s practically synonymous with faux fur is to pin your
stole down with a vintage broach. Here’s how you do it - when you drape the stole
around your neck make sure one side’s longer than the other, then bring the
sides together until they touch at chest height, and pin!
Over one shoulder
If you don’t care about
practicality, you can always drape a faux fur stole over just one shoulder. OK
– you may have to stop it falling off every five minutes – but this look is so
deliciously avante garde you won’t care!
Think about balance
Whichever look you choose, you
need to think about balance. Faux fur stoles tend to make a bit of a splash, so
you don’t want to overcrowd it with statement jewellery, big patterns or
clashing colours. Keep it simple and you’ll be able to rock winter stoles all
season long!
