Fierce: Faux Fur

The fur effect is elegant, expensive, and, of course, warm. But I think, the ability to wear such a thick layer on your body is confidence. Fierce. The right color and style will make you look ready for a party or even down to earth casual. I personally think faux fur should be used for experimenting with colors. Try turquoise. Or the ombre effect. Better yet, party hard with an animal print. If not, go neutral brown, black, or cream. If a faux fur jacket is too much texture or simply too overwhelming at first, give fur a try through small details, like a hat or a lapel collar.
Either go over the top elegant by pairing faux fur with a body-con sequin dress or with the casual combo of t-shirt and jeans. Personally, I like me a white tee, basic jeans, and blow it away with a thick and colorful fur jacket.

When buying fur, remember to consider the texture and the quality of the texture. In general, remember that fur is an investment piece, where you choose to invest the price tag or the effort to look for a good piece through thrift stores or even vintage boutiques. Texture-wise, make a decision between the feathery  fur or the smooth luxurious fur.
