And a beautiful faux fur scarf, can do just that.

Another gorgeous use for a rabbit scarve is to pair with a formal wear dress during the weddings and formal holiday parties you will be attending.

You also have the benefit of a range of colors to pair it with. They can look great with anything from black to white to anything in between. And they look great against cream colored outfits and don't forget to add a little drama by pairing a lighter fur against a darker color or a darker fur against a lighter color.
