The Great Fur Debate

No matter your take on fur as fashion, you can't argue that these fab (faux and real) furs are the epitome of chic. And there are options for everyone, no matter what your take on the controversy. Like the luxe look? Go all out and buy a cropped mink jacket. Part of PETA? Try the new faux fur. It looks anything but cheap. On the fence? Buying vintage fur solves your ethical dilemma. Then take it to a tailor and get it cropped, taken in, or have it attached to an existing jacket as a collar. Look at contemporary pieces for ideas...

Graham & Spencer's glam faux fur coat will make any outfit look super-chic. Pair it with some of this fall's ladylike separates for a vintage look, or go the rock n' roll route with skinny jeans, ankle boots and a tee.











Make your outerwear work overtime with this Elizabeth and James Mercer Fox Fur Collar Coat. It's practically two coats in one... the oversized collar is detachable! (So you can just snap it off when you have a lunch date with your friend who protests for PETA....)







Pair this Shelly Steffee Fur Collar with a slinky dress for a sexy 70's look. Or keep things demure and layer it over a coat. The wide lapel goes over almost any winter jacket, and the gold chain closure will keep it in place.












Is casual more your style? This Juicy Couture Reversible Fur Lined Hoodie will keep you looking chic (and feeling warm) while lounging around the house, or running quick errands. And it also makes a fab gift. (Honestly, who is going to turn down something this cozy?)
