All About Fur Coats and How They Help You Look Your Best

Fur coats have always been a part of human culture. Not only from a fashion perspective but also from a survival perspective. Since the beginning of time, humans have used animal skins and pelts for much needed garments and coverings to protect them from the elements. They have been, are and will be in use as long as people and animals walk the earth. There are simply no comparisons to real fur for function and fashion. Real fur is wonderful to touch, biodegradable, doesn't harm the planet in it's making, keeps you warmer than any other materials and makes you look super sexy.

Scientist have tried and tried to replicate the luxurious and supple elements of furs and leathers. They have come close but unfortunately it's been to the detriment of the planet since the fibers are petroleum based. Oil excavation has done more damage to our planet and cost more lives than the fur industry has since it's inception. When it comes to faux, people have not been informed. A few celebrities in their attempts to appear intelligent and caring, have jumped on band wagons to put down the fur industry. Unfortunately their ignorance has led them to wear faux fur which is made from petroleum. As most intelligent people know these "faux fur" garments are fueling the demand for fossil fuels. This is a demand which has been at the root of many wars and natural disasters. Since faux fur isn't bio-degradable, it will eventually end up in the numerous landfills that are afflicting the planet. Real fur on the other hand, will last for generations if cared for properly. Many fur coats become family heirlooms. However, if for some odd reason a fur coat was thrown away it's completely biodegradable. No harm is done to the planet in it's making or elimination.

In addition to being warm and eco-friendly, fur coats help everyone to look their best. Fur coats come in so many colors, textures and styles that it's easy to find one that compliments your skin tone, hair color and body shape. Plus size ladies and men love how forgiving fur coats are to their larger size frames. This is why most fur companies have a vast assortment of sizes for the extremely petite to the fullest sizes. Famous name fashion designers are incorporating fur into their fashion lines at an astounding rate due to its' luxurious beauty and the publics high demand for it. There are warm colored furs that blend well with warm skin tones. Warm skin tones usually have more of a yellow than pink cast to them. There are many cool colored furs that blend well with cool skin tones. Cool skin tones have more of a pink than yellow cast. One beautiful look is to get a fur in a contrasting color to your hair color. For example a light brown, red, blonde or white haired person may go for a chocolate brown to black fur for the contrast. Likewise a brunette or raven haired person may prefer a white, beige, blonde or whiskey shade for their fur coat. Another nice look is to get a fur in a similar shade as your own hair color. This makes for an interesting monochromatic and fluid appearance.

As the economic recession wanes it is comforting to be wrapped in sumptuous fur. Coming out of such a financial frenzy, it feels soothing to be cuddled up in your relaxing real fur coat just like a baby wrapped in a blanket in a mother's arms. Suddenly all is right with the world.
