Oh, I cannot wait for the temperature to drop. I long for the air to be crisp and hang just slightly in the air when you breathe. There are so many fall trends that I am DYING to wear, but none more than this – the faux fur vest. Fashion has responded to the green and anti-cruelty movements with some wonderful faux alternatives to fur. Some BEAUTIFUL alternatives.
I’m a big fan of the vest, too. Not as bulky as a coat it is easily worn on a nice fall day and is SO flexible! I love this over long-sleeved t-shirts with skinny jeans and killer boots. But it’s equally as stunning with dressier pants for the office. Watch the proportions though when you wear a fluffier, fuller fur. It adds volume so be sure to keep the bottoms slim. I’ve seen it work with a really full skirt and heeled boots, but that usually requires a really tall and slender frame. Keeping the bottoms slim makes it more wearable for more folks.
Check out some affordable faux fur vests that you can find for affordable prices!
