    • This long jacket takes any simple outfit from drab to chic.
    • A faux fur accent make these boots ultra sexy. They're also available in black.
    • This bomber jacket is reversable, so if you get bored with the faux fur you can flip it to a black puffy coat.
    • Pair this with dark slim jeans for daytime.
    • We love this "Mad Men" inspired cardigan.
    • This more affordable, belted one is equally awesome.
    • You don't have to sacrifice style for warmth. This fully lined red coat with a faux fur trimmed hood gets an A+ in both categories.

Many of you Shine readers have commented that real fur is wrong and asked to see faux. We couldn't agree with you more! Everyone from mass retailers like Target to high end designers like Rebecca Taylor have swapped the real thing for fake, and we're quite happy about it. We love the way fur looks, and it obviously keeps our furry friends warm, but when it comes to outfitting ourselves there's no need to be cruel! Decades ago, people weren't as conscious about using and wearing animal fur, but times have changes, and synthetic knockoffs are not only in fashion, they're politically correct. Still feeling weirded out by a faux fur coat? Hints and accents at the neck, ankles and sleeves look chic without being overkill, and provide optimum warmth during chilly months.

Here are some of our very favorite faux fur looks for fall.

    so before you were fine with real fur now you aren't and write an article about how you are against it?? Hmmmmm well where is the problem with that? A little to late to change politicle views I would say. Politically correct??? This article is wrong in so many ways
