Well heavens to Betsy, it's Wednesday, y'all. Two things:
1. I actually had a good friend/sorority sis in college named Betsy. Her name totally did NOT fit her at all, but the expression "heavens to Betsy" obviously makes me think of her...and smile : )
2. Thank you all for your very sweet comments and emails regarding my hair in the pic from last Saturday's post. I will likely not be dying my hair dark any time soon again, but I appreciate that you think I can bat for both hair teams...muchas gracias, chicas!
Hoo'kay...so, let's talk about faux fur. Love it or loathe it?
True. There is nothing more horrid or cheap-looking than bad fake fur. Nothing says "I work on the street corner" quite like a $10 mink jacket from The Icing.
But nothing says I'm cruel and heartless quite like wearing real fur. So basically it's a lose/lose. Unless you can find legit-looking faux fur.
Hard to do, but it can be done. Lemme show ya'.

My favorites are definitely the fur vests! They're everywhere this season!
ReplyDeleteoh, I LOVE that juicy one!
ReplyDeleteFaux fur has certainly come a long way just in the past couple of years. I'm loving those vests!
ReplyDeleteMost definitely YAY. I just don't know how to pull it off...I need a personal stylist, aka YOU! Hope your week is going wonderfully and is flying by quickly :)
ReplyDeleteI love the juciy vest!!! I have a beautiful faux fur that is INC!!
ReplyDeleteI love this look! The leather one at the top is my fav xoxo
ReplyDeletefavorites are in ALL THE FUR TRIMMINGS section. I have never been a fan of FAUX FUR all OVER jackets or vests although I have seen a few women pull them off with ease. just not my cup of tea. oooo tea sounds so lovely!!

The angel side of me says no to fur... but I have to admit, my mom and I have matching fur coats and we wear them to walk the dogs (ridic, i know) but they are SO warm and amazing that i don't think i could get rid of it. as for much an in and out of style fur vest (which i do love by the way) or something, i couldn't do it. but a timeless long fur coat that i'll have for the rest of my entire life, i think that's okay. yikes, i hope people don't hate me :)
ReplyDeleteI've been seeing these fur vests, correction - faux fur vests - but I'll be honest, I don't know if I could swing this particular trend. Might be a little to Zsa Zsa for me. I think Rachel Zoe looks good in hers though.
ReplyDeleteYAY! I love them all.
ReplyDeleteNow if the weather would just cooperate in Atlanta ...
I love all of it! As long as it's not real fur...
ReplyDeleteI picked up a faux fur trimmed vest and can't wait to wear it when the weather cools down!
ReplyDeletewhen i was about 6 years old, my parents bought me a (un-faux) fur coat for christmas. i felt so conspicuous in it every time i wore it, and we eventually gave it away. vests however, i could handle! :)
ReplyDeleteOh I want to snuggle up in any one of those right now! :)
ReplyDeleteI am 100% YAY so long as it's faux. I own three real fur coats that belonged to my mother. After her passing I couldn't deal with the thought of someone else buying them, so I kept them. They were in our family for years so I had to keep them, but I don't see myself ever wearing them.
