Damsels are FUR Real

For real, Damsels. I had a hard time choosing a pun for this one, because technically, I could have said Damsels are FAUX Real or Damsels are FUR Real. I hope you think I chose wisely, as the sentiment I wish to convey has more to do with the idea of fur than the idea of faux, even if the fur is faux—you feel me, damsels?

Pun tangents aside, fur is totally in, partly because the weather is cooling down, and partly because texture is HUGE.

Fur is a great way to make a statement with a staple piece. And faux fur is a great way to make a statement on a budget (and also save animal lives).

The two types of faux fur statements I'm dying over are vests and full jackets.

Fur jackets are great because you can make your statement in your outerwear, letting everyone you pass know that this girl knows what she's doing.

Vests are also wonderful objects because you can wear them indoors, allowing your coworkers, classmates and friends to see what you have going on in your wardrobe.

With all of these practical reasons and general warmth, who could really say no to faux?
