Three Sexy Ways to Wear the Fur Vest

Fur is  baaack.

And for the fall, my favorite piece to wear is the fur vest. It’s glamorous. It’s sexy. It rocks out an outfit. I’ve worn mine to death last year—and like most Washingtonians, it barely made it through that crazy winter blizzard.

But alas, the foliage has arrived and winter is around the bend. I’m busting out my fur vest. And if you’re anything like me, you’re always looking for new ways to wear it. So using the same faux fur vest by Ella Moss, I’ve got three looks for you!

Drum roll please…

CITY GIRL

This is my favorite outfit of the season because it reinvents two looks—the fur vest and the black blazer.

I love a great black blazer. I have five.

Why not create a new attitude for your outfit by wearing the vest over the jacket? I’m guessing most of you have some version of these pieces in your closet (well, maybe not the fedora), so no excuses.

BOHO GIRL

Rachel Zoe made boho chic. And I’ve always been a fan of red tights, especially in combination with black and white. Pairing a fur vest over a tunic with cool hardware brings a modern twist to this boho look. By the way, can someone get me those Jeffrey Campbell clogs for my birthday? I want, I want, I want…
