We were thrilled to videotape a segment on the subject of Faux Fur Fashion for NBC’s New York Live (formerly LX NY) with Lilliana Vazquez. It is one of our favorite afternoon shows, yes we admit to sneaking off at 3:00pm each afternoon to catch a glimpse of Jane Hanson and Sara Gore – they are two of the best-dressed girls on TV – see for yourself at What Our Hosts are Wearing.
We went straight to our friends at J.Mclaughlin for this one! This was the perfect setting for our “Winter City Chic” looks and fell in love with all of their faux and fur pieces. Their versatile collections are perfect for dressing in cozy style and adding trending topics for the winter months ahead. From the very popular vest, to a jacket, to gloves we have something that is appropriate for various occasions and every style.
Look # 1 Uptown Lunching: Pick a slim pencil skirt and pair with a fitted silk blouse and warm faux fur vest and you have a look that is both timeless and on-trend to take you all around the town. Add lady-like flourishes such as mixed chain necklaces and a bright bracelet, loaded with charms.
Look #2 Cozy at Home: Ah, the seduction of an evening at home in front of the fire when the snow is falling. We love these comfy-stretch slacks, paired with a silk blouse and fur-trimmed cardigan. It is a look of casual elegance.
Look #3 Gallery Hoping Downtown: Skinny pants and knee high boots, a woolly turtleneck and a fabulous faux fur vest and you will be composed for an afternoon of art galleries and cafes. Paint the look your own, with a cozy hat and scarf and add a trendy statement pendant necklace for your own rave reviews.
Look #4 Dinner on the Town: You can never go wrong with a Little Black Dress. And for how to update the look, we have added some pattered stockings and platform pumps and faux fur coat or jacket to complete your evening out ensemble.
