Fur. Everyone has an opinion about it. I am one of those ‘in the middle’ types, as in I dont strongly agree or disagree. The reason being I will wear fur but only if it’s vintage. I would never go and buy any new fur and I think it would be a shame to let all the vintage fur available get thrown into a landfill.

Perret Schaad’s show wins our unofficial “Straight From the Runway” award for clean designs that we’d take right off the models. By mixing neutral creams and beiges with a popping canary yellow, we feel that Schaad’s collection had the pe

These wonderful garments are known for being versatile, warm and good-looking and they are one of the hottest trends right now. But do you know what are you actually buying? There are three kinds of shearling coats: the luxury ones, the mid-range ones and the low-quality ones. At a first glance, they may be identical.

Fur coats are women’s favorite fall/ winter garments and that’s because these beautiful, absolutely fabulous coats give you a luxury look, they keep you warm and they are really fun to match them with all kinds of clothes.

Known to most people as ‘artificial’, faux is actually a French word for the same. This can refer to fabrics as well as all other materials like metals or stones and more.
