Black Faux Fur Vest

Happy Sunday! No matter where you live, I hope you had amazing weather this weekend, and were able to get outside! New England had a warm weekend, and I took full advantage by going on runs with my German Shepherd. Running is my favorite way to unwind and clear my head, and the weather was perfect for it. The Boston Garden was beautiful to run through, and the hills on the Commons were a great challenge! Hopefully this great weather is here to stay!

One of my all-time favorite things about warmer weather, is the ability to wear a vest as a jacket! Layering with a vest is a great way to complete a look, without overpowering the outfit. During the winter it stinks when you have a cute outfit, and need to cover up with a big coat! Instead of being fully covered, a vest can complement your look.

My new obsession is faux fur vests! They have similar great qualities as a puffer vest, but help dress a look up. This black faux fur vest from Target is incredibly soft. I felt comfortable and stylish, while taking a walk on this breezy Sunday.

Faux Fur Vest

There is something so wonderful about a nice vest! When it comes to New England weather, it can be cold one minute, warm the next. For this reason, vests are a great choice for outerwear during the fall season.  Pair it with a cozy sweater (like I did below) and you are all set for the ever changing fall weather! 

  

I have always been a sucker for vests, but lately I have been particularly drawn to faux fur vests.  They add a nice pop of texture to an outfit, and can go with almost anything.  Recently I have been on the look out (and still am) for a nice black faux fur vest.  However, on my hunt, I have found a beige faux fur vest that caught my eye.  

 

I spotted this vest and absolutely fell in love with how unique it was. Unlike others I have seen, this one has a substantial amount of faux fur in the front. The material collects in the front, and causes it to beautifully fold open.  This gives the vest a nice detailing.  

My favorite part about this vest is that it is reversible! Versatility in an item is always a plus when shopping.  One side of this vest is beige faux fur, while the other is dark gray cotton. The cotton is comfortable, but the faux fur is unbelievably soft when worn on the inside! The combination of the two makes a thick, cozy vest that is warm and perfect to snuggle up in. Which, as us New Englanders know, is always something to consider when making a fashion purchase. This vest is a little out of my comfort zone, but the way it felt made me go for this purchase.  And I am so glad that I did!

OUTFIT DETAILS: Faux Fur Vest: Target.  This vest also comes in Plus Size.  Over-sized Cable Knit Sweater: Express.  Mine is from last season.  I have links to a similar Express sweater here and here.  Low Rise Dark Wash Denim: Express.  Gray Suede Booties: White Mountain.  However, I purchased mine from DSW at a great price!  Necklace: Nigeria. Satchel: Fossil.  This was last year's color, and is unavailable at this time. This satchel comes in various other colors, located in the Fossil link (seen above).
