Faux

March 11th 2013 Style

ASOS Revive Metallic Faux-Fur Dress / Bracher Emden Belt * / Topshop Laced Boots / Balenciaga City

Sorry if this is a little repetitive, but I just had to take some better photos of this dress I wore for the ‘Libertine’ launch party in my last post, and get some shots of the beautiful metallic faux-fur up close too.

It’s no secret I’m a huge fan of interesting textures, I think when you dress primarily in black it becomes much more important, as layering different kinds really helps to keep a monochrome outfit interesting in place of colours. So as you can imagine when I spied this on ASOS it went straight into my bag. I love the mixture of the leather back & sleeves with the fur front & that subtle bronze shimmer, the shift shape is really flattering too & gives it a slightly futuristic vibe. It’s so soft & fluffy, I think I ended up secretively stroking it most of the night!

I know I’m in danger of wearing this Bracher Emden belt too much & it losing it’s wow-factor, but I can’t help myself, the added punch it gives to any outfit is pretty addictive. Plus it seemed the perfect compliment to this dress, upping the sci-fi factor a little more. You know as far as I’m concerned the more something makes me feel like I’ve raided the costume chests of some of my favourite sci-fi movies, the more I like it!

    I saw this dress in your previous post and just thought, WOW. So glad you dedicated a post just to the dress. I really love the detail, the two tone effect, and leather back. You looked stunning! x

    I swear you always manage to find gems on ASOS! I can find them but it takes a long time for me LOL and honestly that belt will never loose it’s ‘wow’ nor get old. It’s way too unique and a structural piece of art to be.

    Great texture mix, I can’t think of anything that leather doesn’t match with though, or it might be the belt that adds that touch of perfection?

    Hi lovely, I laughed out loud at the being put down comment! I’ve said that many times to my family/boyfriend!! Your beautiful belt really does compliment your beautiful dress! As ever, your choices are impeccable Steph :) I hope you had a fab night – will read the post below in a second! I was just looking at the photos, and I was thinking ‘that looks like faux fur’ then ‘no I don’t think it is’… and I was surprised and pleased to find out it is :) it’s lovely! xxx

    Gosh you are always so impeccably put together – I love the structure to your style and I absolutely love seeing you wear that belt – definitely NOT losing it’s wow factor quite yet.

    Thanks for your lovely comment too! My jeans are covered in black rhinestones which have managed to remain intact despite me owning them for quite a few years now :)
