When it comes to cosy home décor, one of our favourite winter styling trends this season (and honestly every winter season) is Faux Fur. Specifically, Faux Fur Cushions, Throws and Blankets. Rivalling real fur in its silky softness and gorgeous lustre, our range of Faux Fur is completely animal friendly – so much so that you may find your animal friends curled up in it all winter. That’s if you’re willing to share of course!
If you're looking to decorate your home with texture, warmth and a touch of luxe, faux fur is your best friend. However, it can be a little daunting getting your styling right. To learn how to style faux fur in your home, read on for our 3 top styling tips.
Tip 1: Pair with Contrasting Textures
SHOP THE LOOK:
We looooove layering with faux fur in winter. It adds a feeling of warmth that very few other fabrics can achieve. It also has an uncanny way of making us want to bury ourselves in a warm cocoon of furry blankets. However, we generally use some self-control and pair it back. Adding a faux fur throw or faux fur cushion to a bed or couch with contrasting layers and textures will create a balanced look and added depth, keeping your faux fur looking sophisticated and elegant.
Tip 2: Choose Your Colours Wisely
SHOP THE LOOK:
If you’re styling with Faux Fur, it needs to be your leading lady. It’s a statement. It deserves to shine. So, it’s important not to surround it with anything too ‘loud’. In our opinion, bright colours and bold patterns do not mesh well with fake fur. That is unless you’re going for a maximalist style – in that case all power to you! Personally, we think fur goes beautifully with soft neutral tones and natural textures. This creates a look of cosy opulence full of rich texture, without crossing into 'gaudy' territory.
Tip 3: Keep it Simple for a Luxe Feel
SHOP THE LOOK:
Adding faux fur to your bedroom or living room décor will add instant warmth and an inviting feel, however, to create a luxuriously elegant style it’s important to consider the surrounding textures in your space. If you have a room that feels cold and lacks textural depth, this is where fake fur really shines. Simply adding a fur throw blanket or cushion to an otherwise minimalist space can completely transform the overall feel and add some much-needed warmth in the winter months. Alternatively, pairing your faux fur with contrasting textures such as smooth cotton and knitted wool will really make your styling pop in a way that is sophisticated yet luxe, without being overboard.
