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.
