Fake it 'til you can make it
Fur (fake, of course!) trim can look really glamorous, even on the plainest of garments. If you've got a cardigan or jacket that could do with that little extra something, give this temporary makeover a go - no sewing needed!

Step 1
Cut the fake fur to whatever width you like, although about 20cm is probably the most manageable and flattering.
Step 2
Line up the center of the fur strip with the center back of the jacket and use a safety pin (or loose hand stitch) to attach fur to inside of jacket.
Match up ends of fur with front edges of jacket and pin/hand stitch. Then pin/hand stitch the rest of the fur to the jacket so it stays in place and no gaps can be seen from the outside of the jacket.
Step 3
Finished! And if you need to wash the jacket or the fur separately, or want the jacket plain again, you can just remove the fur.
