Touch of Vintage - Wearing a Thrifted Fur

I love vintage finds of every kind from beautiful champagne glasses to furniture to cozy fur coats! Unfortunately, in the town I live in, the options for vintage shopping are few and far between, but I have found a few special things and the fur I’m wearing here is one of them (similar here). I’ve worn it in different ways, but this is the most casual. It adds just a touch of warmth to my outfit and a whole lot of personality!

For fashionistas who love both animals and wearing fur, going vintage is a good solution. Old furs don’t contribute to the profits of modern fur farms, and usually they support small and local vintage shops. Fur stoles from the 50’s and 60’s have a luxurious, decadent glamor and can be worn in endless ways…they also are a fraction of the cost of even some faux furs these days!

I styled my fur “stole” with grey jeans, sparkly Gucci boots, a black turtleneck and a denim jacket! My fabulous boots are from 2 seasons ago, but I did find a pair of gently used ones in a size 9….linked below if you’re interested!
