Wool Week

The Prince of Wales has been trying to raise awareness about wool this week, and trying to bring it back into fashion to help support a declining British farming economy. Rather than using synthetic and cheaper alternatives, Prince Charles wants the fashion world to go back to our roots and use wool as it is far more durable and eco-friendly. And its good to see people responding to this campaign, with Selfridges and Saville Row turning themselves into sheep farms for the night, so perhaps it is only fitting that we take a look at what is out there at the moment that even the Prince himself could not disapprove of.

Not quite wool but this Wool Rich Sheepskin coat is too good not to mention, and just incase you need some more inspiration, here's a cute picture of some sheep to keep you going!
