Faux Fur Accents For AW15

Who else loves this time of year? As soon as the leaves start to fall from the trees, we're thinking cosy jumpers, log fires, hot chocolate and snug nights in front of the TV. 

We also love the Autumn Winter fashion and the deep colours that signal a season change, such as khaki, navy blue and deep burgundy.

One fashion accessory we can't live without is some beautiful faux fur. Once again we're adding faux fur pieces into our accessory collection and the colours, styles and quality are amazing. Of course our favourite celebs love the faux fur too and Kim Kardashian can be seen sporting everything faux fur, as it's so easy to wear whether it's day, weekends or occasions!

So at Bag Envy we have everything from capes, to gilets to headbands in loads of colours!

One of our favourite pieces is the Cossack Hat. Easy to wear on those chilly nights at the Bonfire party or Christmas shopping on a Saturday afternoon! Our Cossack hats, along with our other faux fur products, are made from premium high grade faux fur and are fleece back lined for extra warmth and cosiness

Another favourite is the collar! These are amazing for throwing over your favourite leather jacket or jumper through the day, but at night drape a collar over your favourite LBD and add some serious glam to your look! We love the shimmering metallic colour of the Lumi collar, pictured below, but you can bag it in some other amazing colours too such as cobalt blue and deep plum! 

Check out the full collection of faux fur here.

OMG! Khloe Has A Walk-In for Fitness Wear

So most of us would actually die for a walk in wardrobe, but imagine having a walk in purely for your fitness wear! Well check out Khloe Kardashian's...we are well jel!

First off, there's a whole back wall and two side panels dedicated to sneaks. And not only that, they're colour co-ordinated like a rainbow! To the left we're talking shorts and vests, to the right it's hoodies and leggings.

Now this is only one angle of the closet, Khloe also has a counter full of wrist and head bands, sports bras and other jaw dropping accessories.

Seriously though, Khloe loves her fitness and whilst this resembles an actual sports shop, we bet it all gets used. The fact that its all neatly displayed and colour co-ordinated suggests this Kardashian is a true and devoted fitspo!

Kylie Jenner And Her Fendi Monster

Kylie Jenner is one of favourite style icons. This girl has got everything going on, what with the mermaid blue hair, gorgeous nail art and let's not even get started on those lips...again!

What we love most about Kylie, is her ever-changing style and how she just seems to carry it all of perfectly. She's not afraid to experiment with fashion and colour and is definitely keeping us on our toes with the latest trends.

Of course we love to see what arm candy Kylie is carrying, you can always guarantee the latest hot tote will be swinging on the crook of her arm. But what we've noticed recently, is how much Kylie loves her Fendi furry monster.

Not sure what we're talking about? Well, some time ago, Fendi introduced a key chain which looks like a furry face monster and they're available in some amazing colours and actually look really sweet. As well as using the little beast as a key ring, Kylie like to attach hers to her favourite handbag and we think they're lush.

Now, you won't be surprised to hear that there is a hefty price tag on these little beauties, but after all they are Fendi...what do you expect? But never fear, we have some amazing furry key charms that will add a splash of colour to any bag, clutch, purse or keys! Ours are available as a plain furry ball in vibrant yellow, coral and red. Check out our furry pom poms here which look amazing attached to some of our new arrival handbags!

Princess Charlotte's Christening

It's been a while since any of us have clapped eyes on the new royal baby, princess Charlotte. She's been kept well out of the spotlight with brother George until last weekend, when we were given full on view and endless pics of the  adorable pair at her Christening.

Kate and William walked to the Sandringham church and the streets were lined with thousands of well wishers all waiting to get a glimpse of the beautiful family. George looked happy and sweet, dressed in a charming cream shirt and matching red shorts. The outfit mirrored Williams, worn back in 1984, when he first met Harry. Kate looked chic as ever, wearing a strikingly similar outfit to the one she wore for George's christening as pictured below.

For Princess Charlotte's christening, she opted for the same colour scheme and accessories and as ever, looked absolutely stunning. 

As for baby Charlotte, tradition took precedence. Wearing the same christening gown that had been passed down through the generations and worn by royal babies before her and the vintage pram she travelled to the church in, was the very same one the Queen had used for her children.
