STYLE GURU STYLE: Fabulous Fur

March 3rd, 2015 at 2:10am

Michael Kors fall 2015 ready-to-wear collection is filled with warm colors, cozy cashmere and fur pieces. Although many of the individual looks in Kors’s collection are monochromatic, the wide range of textures and fur detailing keeps the collection interesting. Each look appears crisp, sophisticated and of course— stunning.

I used Kors as my style inspiration for my look. I paired my white knit sweater along with my faux fur vest. I’m often cautious when sporting anything that may look like fur around campus. It often stirs controversy with the animal-loving community. I’ve had comments thrown at me such as “what animal did you kill to get that” or “oh, I could never do that.” I have to remind people that it is fake fur, however real fur would be no different than their leather boots or belt. I believe that any controversial topic is great for discussion because it gets people talking and it brings light to the issue.

I layered my sweater and vest with a side braid and an eye-catching necklace. The hint of sparkle adds glamour to the look. On the bottom I’m wearing dark blue skinny jeans and glossy maroon booties. Unlike the Kors collection, I felt the need to add a bit of color to enhance the look and adjust to my personal style.

The Kors collection has inspired me to glam up my wardrobe during the times when the weather may be on the colder side. Who says you can’t look chic in the chilly weather?

Get My Look: 1. A fur vest. 2. A stand-out necklace. 3. A white knit sweater.
