Try a Trend: Faux Fur

Last week, the weather cooled down in Texas and I was happy to bring out the Fall gear!  Try a Trend is back!  I must admit that I’m not really “trying” the fur trend.  It’s been fully embraced for the last couple of years!  I’m always looking for a reason to wear my faux fur vests, capelets, or boots!  And this look has two trends going on – fur and animal print!  Whoa!

faux fur vest :: Ross
blazer :: Gap
dress :: Norma Kamali for Walmart
earrings :: Anthropologie
purse :: Chloe boudior bag
heels :: Chanel

Here we go with that contrast of color again!  This time, I chose an orangey melon to spice up the black.  At first, I just had the vest over the dress, but it wasn’t quite right because the dress is short sleeved.  To add warmth, I wore the vest OVER a blazer!  If it’s really frosty, I would wear black tights and tall boots.  This is a great way to winterize some of your summer/ spring dresses.  Here’s some more fashion math!  dress + jacket/vest + tights + boots = winter fashionista!
I first spotted this little orange bubble beauty in Paris years ago.  Alas it was not meant to be (at that time).  I found it a year later on ebay at a great price.  (It happened right after my bubble car, a VW beetle, was vandalized beyond repair when we moved to Fort Worth.  In memory of my little beetle that was…) 

These earrings really make a statement!  Although they may be considered more of a spring/ summer color, they makes an impact with darker clothes in the fall/winter.

I’m trying to figure out how to do video tutorials!  I’ve gotten requests for “how to tie a belt” and “how I do my hair”!  Coming soon (hopefully)!
