It’s getting a bit brisk outside, no? Gone are the days when I can walk out of my house in the morning without thinking about outerwear, and I’ve started reaching for thicker layers to build outfits around.
Today I’ve teamed up with my pal Nikki from The Fashionable Wife to bring you two ways to wear a big trend this fall and winter: fur. Nikki’s rocking a fur-trimmed scarf, while I show you how to wear a fur vest.
The fur vest is pretty neutral, so I brightened the whole look up by pairing it with bright cords. Bonus: more texture. A simple cream cropped sweater, studded nude t-strap flats, and a monogram necklace were all I needed to complete the look.
Nikki took a red dress and layered it over a classic striped shirt. (I love this trick; wear your sleeveless dresses well past Labor Day by layering fall + winter appropriate pieces like long-sleeved tees, turtlenecks, and lightweight sweaters underneath.) The fur-trimmed scarf adds warms and elevates the style, as does a pair of really stellar black booties.
There you have it- two ways to work fur into your fall and winter wardrobe. What do you think? A trend you’ll be trying? I’m definitely game. A huge thanks to Nikki for tackling this trend with me! Make sure you swing by The Fashionable Wife and send Nikki some love; her blog is a fave of mine.
Linking up today with Get Your Pretty On.

I love your fur vest! The cut is super cute. I have one that is more cropped, but I’d love to pick up a longer one as well!
