How to wear faux fur and look chic—not gimmicky
It's the cruelty-free way to rock fur this season!
Fuzzy, fluffy, furry—no matter how you refer to faux fur, the statement fabric can sometimes look gimmicky. But you can wear a textured topper, from office to holiday bash, all the while being cozy, confident and chic. Here's proof!

The coat: Faux fur doesn't have to be saved for subzero weather or a fancy soiree. Incorporate it into everyday wear; this short bomber style is a great substitute for a cardigan or a leather or denim jacket. Faux-fur jacket, $129, garciajeans.com.
The dress: Move over, stripes; the chevron pattern is blowing up this fall. Not only is it playful and retro but it's also super flattering, giving you the illusion of added length. Chevron dress, $170, bananarepublic.ca.
The earrings: When it comes to hoops, size matters. Don a large, but slim, set with an unexpected embellishment in the back. Hoop earrings, $155, erintracy.ca.
The brooch: Add a bit of holiday flair with a brooch (or two or three). This small accessory can make a major impact. Gold-toned parrot pin, $35, bananarepublic.ca.
The bracelet: Skip the larger-than-life baubles in favour of a pretty gold cuff. Feather bracelet, $62, bananarepublic.ca.
The bag: The charming doctor's-bag silhouette is sleek and sophisticated, while still being large enough to house your essentials. Suede doctor's bag, $230, bananarepublica.ca.
The booties: Instead of your typical pumps, put your best foot forward with a pair of caged booties. Lace-up booties, $195, ninewest.ca.
