Faux Fur Vests- Let's discuss.

Marcy from New Jersey recently asked me, 


"Can we address fur vests?
I really really really want one, but I'm not sure if my short & stout body can manage it, or if it would be too massive of a piece for me. Or if it's too young. 
I may be short, but I'm no Mary Kate Olsen."

Doll, of course you can. Many of these vests come in different styles, varying textures, and colors. The trick is finding the right one that fits your body type. 
Are they too young for you? Absolutely not! I've seen women of all ages wearing this trend. 
The first one here, with a slight collar and short "sleeves" crops above the hip, and would be a nice length for someone under 5'3" because the vest isn't taking over the body.

The second vest, decorated with a satin ribbon as a belt, and a little bit longer in length would be more style appropriate for someone taller. Pieces that have more fabric do well with more body. 
The last vest style above is versatile enough for most body types. Find one that is cropped at your hip bone, isn't so puffy that you would think you are wearing the fake animal, and you should be good to go.

Here are some examples that would be good styles for you to try.
