Faux Real

Hello from the inside lovebugs,
I must have Netflixed 1,000 times. Here in DC we have two feet of snow and while it's awesome, it's also cold. So today I thought we would warm things up with some faux fur/shearling outerwear that puts my utility puffer coat to shame.

Nordstrom, Steve Madden Faux Shearling Crop Moto Jacket, $99

The look of true shearling but without the price. I really love the soft leather and asymmetrical zipper.

Amazon, Jessica Simpson Wool Anorak, $220 $56

Originally $220, this jacket is a steal! Heavy wool but you can define a great waistline with the drawstrings.

Macy's, Larry Levine Faux Fur Hood Down Puffer, $195 $79

Look at this slimming quilting seam along the torso. A beautiful winter white.

Modcloth, Toasty Transit Coat, $89

Who doesn't love a great toggle coat? This one has lovely details with patch pockets and a full zipper.

So stay warm and stylish this week with whatever you have. This snow isn't melting any time soon so why not stand out with your outerwear?

So NBD

Let's talk faux fur. A couple of years ago the faux fur vest came on the scene and people were nervous  about looking too boho, too rocker, too whatever. Now this look is no big deal, it's a not even a trend, it's totally normal, and thank goodness, because this is fall look I'm loving.

Lord and Taylor, Tinsel Faux Fur Vest, $75

I love this color combination because it goes with anything. Absolutely anything.

Forever 21, Open Front Faux Fur Vest, $37

Effortless, just chic and easy.

Choies, Variegated Peacock Striped Faux Fur Waistcoat, $31

A very different look for faux fur. A feathery style that is easy to belt.

Target, Women's Faux Fur Vest Black, $34

Even Target is getting in on it. A lovely longer option that has pockets.

So this non-trend is back and affordable. Are you wearing it? For me, this item is one I pick a color/style and that's it. This isn't a pair of jeans that I have 3, 4...7 pairs. This is a one and done and fantastic.

She's So Fake

Keeping with yesterday's holiday party theme, I thought we would move to dressed up scarves. Believe me, there is a time and place for this but when its cold and you've got your party dress on, it's time to swank it up. Enter the faux fur scarf. 

Anthropologie, Ulrica Faux Fur Scarf, $78

This is glamour. This is how we dress up and grow up. Feel free to add some blinded out broach.

Ann Taylor, Faux Fur Scarf, $89

Do you have a bright colored winter coat? This is a great neutral to add.

Banana Republic, Jules Faux Fur Trim Scarf, $79

Here's a nice hybrid option if you don't want to go full out furry.

Limited, Keyhole Scarf, $29

This scarf reminds me of my grandmother in the best possible way. I think it is so beautiful.

Do you faux? I love my fun and colorful scarves, but sometimes an event demands something a little bit more.
