There was a time, not so long ago, when faux fur was considered, well, low rent. Even if you wouldn’t wear real fur, you thought long and hard about wearing anything that looked fake or found really good wool/cashmere blends for a warm alternative. Or was that just me? Then suddenly, last fall, faux fur was all the rage and even, dare I say…tasteful. In fact, prices of many designer faux fur pieces were almost criminal. Well, the fake variety of fur is back again this season and you can find covetable pieces at every price point. Faux fur vests, jackets, boots and even bags are yours for the taking. And if you can only stomach a touch here and there…you can always opt for faux fur lined items. Take your pick. Just one piece at a time please. Head-to-toe faux fur is a no-no.
