Holiday to Everyday: Faux Fur Coat

Something like a faux fur coat can feel intimidating. Can you wear it beyond the special events? Yes you can. I'm going to give you some tips on how.

FALL IN LOVE

Don't freak out because it's faux fur. Find the best one you can and fall in love. If you're not in love, move on. This one from APPARIS is to die for. It is the faux fur jacket I've been waiting for. Like for years. So take your time, and don't pay for something you don't want to keep wearing all day long.

PAIR IT WITH SOMETHING CASUAL

Whenever you have something that feel special, like a faux fur coat, the trick to being able to wear it beyond said special event is to pair it with something casual. Pair it with denim, a sweater, and you're good to go. Pair it with joggers and a sweater. Pair it with your business attire and see how it feels. You are a better judge of what is appropriate than you think.

WEAR WITH CONFIDENCE

If you're feeling shy about wearing your faux fur jacket during the day then take it for some test drives. Literally. Drive to Target or your local grocery store and do your shopping. Ease yourself into wearing it out with friends and family. People will look, but it will be a good look and not a "oh bless her heart" look.
