Best of … faux fur fashions

Contributed by Tim Brugger, Catalogs.com Top 10 Guru

Thankfully, designers and manufacturers have made it possible for men and women to enjoy the style and look of faux fur.

There was a time when the only question was “is that Nutria or ‘Coon skin?” they looked so … shabby.

No longer; quality cuts and styles with the latest materials are at your disposal. Enjoy the best of faux fur fashion:

Stroller

Downtown cut

The perfect cut for walking the Boulevard, Fabulous Furs has styles for every occasion. As it happens, this Mahogany Ruched Stroller caught my eye, but the variety is almost endless. And, like most Fabulous Furs wear, this is hand cut, hand crafted and hand finished in their own workroom. The attention to detail shows, don’t you think?

Winter boots

Lace up warmth

With Winter (too) fast approaching, time to think about some new boots. This faux fur fashion item is certainly a hot ticket nowadays as boots of all shapes and styles have made a huge splash. You’ll stand above the rest in these faux shearling Winter Boots from Roaman’s. And since neither we, nor Roaman’s, play favorites, these come in both men’s and women’s sizes.

Cardigan

Cozy and fashionable

Not only stylish, but this faux fur fashion cardigan has the added benefit of being ridiculously comfortable. With the baby soft faux leopard skin and chenille arms you can unzip it, plop down on the couch and use it as a throw blanket. I bet Serengeti never imagined what a find this is for faux fur lovers … or maybe they did!

Heels

Trendy booties

Let’s stick with the faux leopard motif, though these may be a bit over top in conjunction with the jacket. If you’re feeling a little feisty and ready for a night out, jump over to FractionPrice.com (where you’ll save about 50% off retail), grab these Giuseppe Zanotti designed booties and get ready to trip the lights fantastic. Make sure to take a peek at their faux fur purses too, very nice.

Mock scarf

Lined for warmth

As with so many faux fur fashions, here’s another perfectly timed accessory just in time for fall. From the Orvis women’s collection, this fleece hood with faux fur lining just plain looks warm and comfortable. As many a woman will attest, these are nice alternatives to hats too. Hoods are much easier on the bane of hairdressers the world over: unsightly and unwanted helmet hair.
