Jessica White: Bringing Back the Fur Coat

On Sunday I was scanning the channels for something interesting to watch, and I ended up on the T.O. show. In this episode Terrell Owens was going to be featured in Ritchie Rich fashion show. Since he and his PR person, Kita were in NYC, Kita decided to meet with one of his ex-girlfriends, Victoria's Secret model Jessica White. When Jessica walked into the coffee shop, I couldn't help but notice her amazing fur coat. I didn't even pay attention to the conversation between she and Kita, because I was trying to figure out whether or not her coat was a bomber or full length. I've always thought that fur coats are luxe and the ultimate mark of sophistication. I decided to look into what designers incorporated fur into their shows and ultimately help fur to make a comeback on the fashion scene.

Chanel Iman models a gorgeous waist length camel colored belted fur in the DSquared2 Fall 2010 Fashion Show.

These are all great examples of how a little fur can go a long way. Notice how each designer has paired the fur with a more casual outfit. Casually dressed fur is a great way to incorporate or reintroduce fur into your wardrobe
