Faux Real

Instead of wearing leather and fur, why can't you just be more animal friendly and just wear the fake? I think that faux leather or faux fur look just as good as the real stuff and it doesn't cost as much either.
Faux Real

In the look the jacket, heels, and bag are made out of faux leather. This look is simple yet beautiful. I love the detailing on the shoes and the gold paired with the brown.

Faux Real 2

I love that this look is feminine yet tough. The ruffles in the top and the pink accessories work to achieve the feminine look, but the faux leather skirt, ankle boots, and motorcycle jacket toughen up the look.

This casual look combines faux leather, with the bag and boots, with a faux fur vest. This look is easy to put together but can look like you actually spent time on your appearance.

Here is a feminine floral print dress paired with a faux fur vest. Again I love pairing the brown vest and boots with gold accessories. For a pop of color I added the red bag.

  13. While I like real fur, I don't see a problem with wearing fake fur, especially if it saves an animal's life. I am strongly against animal cruelty.

  17. Exactly! I wonder what was in those people's mind when they are wearing those real fur? When actually faux fur is no less FAB?! I love every set you post! Floral prints are all PRETTY!

  18. I love the first and fourth look especially! I don't wear real fur, but can't live without leather. I do understand if people opt for pleather though, but I hope they never throw their fake leather away, since that's the stuff that can't be broken down in landmines. I think Stella McCartney has received flak, for the fact that her animal friendly stuff is actually harmful to the environment, so I guess we lose either way...
