This Winter Trend Is Officially Taking Over My IG
When you spend as much time scrolling through IG as I do (don’t judge), you quickly notice patterns among fashion girls—what they’re wearing, not wearing, endorsing, and the like. Trends emerge pretty clearly, and currently, it’s all about furry outerwear.
Now, I know faux-fur pieces are in no way a “new” trend, having been around for decades, but they’ve appeared to hit the IG circuit in an even more impactful way this season, via everything from cropped styles to oversize coats. Given the slew of gorgeous finds out there at just about every price point, it’s not hard to see why—undoubtedly, it’s hard to resist scooping one up and then posting about it immediately. To see what I mean, I rounded up 10 of my favorite fashion peeps in fluffy coats, plus pulled together the best silhouettes to shop this season.
The beauty of a furry coat is that it’s so statement-making you don’t necessarily need to add a ton of extra frills to your outfit. Jeans, a knit, and ankle boots work great.
Nail two of winter’s biggest trends—leopard and faux fur—in one forward look.
Okay, this isn’t quite a coat, but it’s still so impactful layered with a cool knit.
You’ll stand out in an instant with a monochrome outfit featuring a lavender coat and coordinating dress.
Remember how I said all you need is a furry coat, jeans, and ankle boots? Yep, wasn’t lying.
Stay extra cozy in a longer faux fur that’s equal parts functional and fashionable.
A color-block coat feels incredibly fresh for the season.
Add extra dimension to an all-black look with a pretty white coat.
A camel-hued faux fur looks particularly perfect against white jeans for an off-duty vibe.
And there you have it—bundling up’s never felt so good.
Next, check out the boot style fashion girls love.
