Leopard Coolie Coat ($34.80)
Rating: Buy It Never
Fit: I adore faux fur animal print jackets. They’re so very Carrie Bradshaw-cool. The only problem is it’s hit or miss when it comes to quality. While the boxy fit of this coat is perfect to wear over a LBD, the synthetic material is too shiny to look chic.
Versatility: I would say it would be great to wear to a Sex and the City party when the new movie comes out. But you might as well buy something you can re-wear and spend the 30 bucks on Cosmo mix.
Trend Factor: Fur is HUGE for fall. As an animal lover, I’m a faux-only girl. Spend a little extra and try a bomber from Fabulous Furs instead. I have a couple of their coats and they look and feel much more realistic—and they’re not too much more expensive.
Demographic: Nobody

What a cute jacket! With faux furs, it’s really about the texture — got to be soft yet durable. Spend a little extra and get a better one that fits. Check out http://www.noblefurs.com — my favorite.
