Current Lusts: Lusts of the Winter

Here, I list 10 items I am lusting after, specifically for the winter season. Enjoy!


Winter Lusts

1) BCBGENERATION faux fur scarf to wrap around plain coats to give it a touch of the glamour fur can add to an everyday outfit.
2) Ted Baker gloves. I hear they're the best and last a long time. Quality... check!
3) Fait isle sweater. I love sweaters and have been dying to get one with a tasteful fair isle print that screams the holiday's are right around the corner!
4) Chanel sunglasses... need I say more?
5) Faux fur cassock hat. Have one in white from last winter and really want one in a brown shade.
6) Coach Therese boots. 3 1/2 inch heels for this 5'2" brunette and tassels. I also really need a pair of black boots and these seem like they'll get the job done. They are also currently on sale at coach.com.
7) Carven cable knit dress for holiday parties. Would look amazing with pearls and a nice winter coat.
8) New pair of Wolford tights. Super comfy.
9) Burberry London shearling coat. Just look at it... I have for the past 2 or so weeks. MAJOR LUST.
10) Calvin Klein snow boots for skiing this holiday vacation. My last pair got lost and I had to but a new cheap pair on holiday that just weren't as stylish as these seem to be.

Fur Frenzy: Gloves and Mittens


Today's Fur Frenzy post brings gloves and mittens accented with fur. Not only does this look great but its actually functional at keeping you warm. I don't know about you but one of the first things to freeze first when out in the cold are my hands and the fur is absolutely brilliant at keeping your hands toasty especially if they are fur lined. Surprisingly, it wasn't hard to find these gloves and mittens. I thought they would all look the same but as you can see they come in a variety of colours (I even found a tiger print one from Mulberry) and many brands do them. From the classic Ted Baker to French Connection, you're sure to find a pair of gloves that fit, well, like a glove.

Fur Frenzy: Coats!

fur coat frenzy


Today's Fur Frenzy series post will focus on luxurious costume fur coats. From full on fur to maybe just a touch around the collars and neckline, fur can instantly make an everyday outfit look very swanky and sumptuous. There isn't really much to say about fur coats either but just marvel in the grand appearance of them and bask in the warmth when the temperatures go down. And as shown above, they range vastly from simple styles, like the Michael Kors pponcho and Rachel Zoe coat, to crazy prints like the Blumarine tweed coat and the gorgeous teal Meadham Kirchoff at the far upper right. Also, who doesn't live the unbelievably ritzy Maurizio Pecoraro numbers? Hope you enjoyed!

Fur Frenzy!

So with the impending winter weather, December, and the holiday's looming, I decided to post a series of fur fashion (faux fur or costume fur, as Karl Lagerfeld prefers it, only). As winter draws near, layering and comfy sweaters becomes more in fashion (thank god the summers fashion of crop tops is done for a while). You may be wondering how to stay warm and still look quite fashionable. Solution? Fur. Fur is always big for winter, making it timeless really. The best thing is that fur accents are everywhere. On gloves, wrapped around your neck as a scarf or even on your shoes. Look out for upcoming Fur Frenzy posts!

 *Funny fur fact- I was watching an interview (totally forgot who with) once of someone on David Letterman's show and apparently there was a rumour going around that his suits are fur lined because his studio is so cold! The rumor was false but I thought it was funny. And yes, it is ironic that I put a false rumour as a fur fact.
