A faux fur vest is a good piece to have for Fall and Winter. You can actually wear one any time of year and age doesn’t matter. It adds a layer of warmth over your clothes or over a jacket in winter, and can be used as an extra layer under your coat. When you add a coat over a fur vest, you will be super warm on the coldest days of the year. Just be sure it’s not bulky! It’s so versatile that I’ve come up with over 100 ways to look terrific in a faux fur vest.
The fur vest dresses up any outfit in the same way that a statement necklace does. You can always use an accessory that dresses up your ordinary clothes, especially something nice and warm! It makes a basic outfit feel lush! A fur vest can dress up a simple t-shirt with jeans. It makes a plain button-down look suddenly luxe. You can even just throw it on over sweatpants to go out the door on the spur of the moment, adding warmth while looking good too!
Use these outfit ideas to make your life easier. With all of the outfit combinations below, you’ll get maximum use of a fur vest without hardly having to think!
