Hello 2020! The New Year is here which means it’s time for you to start creating your New Year Resolutions. Most resolutions are about self-improvement and self-empowerment. Something else you should consider? Treating yourself with new clothing, gifts, and additional goodies often. Treating yourself throughout the year is important, and what better way to do it then with a new Denver fur coat?! 

A Denver fur coat is the perfect way to make sure you will not only stay warm, but also comfortable, and stylish. A fur coat is the perfect addition to your wardrobe and a great way to make a powerful fashion statement. However, before you purchase your next big purchase, there are a few things that you should be aware of. 

The Real vs. Faux Debate
Interested in faux fur? There are a few things you should know about real fur, and ultimately why it’s better than faux. Real fur is softer, and the animal hairs taper off at the end...making the jacket look smooth, put together, and ultimately sleek. If you are unsure of if the coat is real, make sure to check for labels and look inside the coat for lining. 

Research
You should take time to research fur coats. Not just the type of fur, but also the local fur shops in your area. Expert tip, fur sold in the United States must have the type of fur and the country of origin printed in the label. Check for that, if it isn’t there you should avoid this type of jacket. Research expands to more than just the ins and outs of the coat you are getting, you should also research the best coat for your environment. If you have heavy snow and brutally cold winter, a heavier coat is going to be best for you. If you typically have mild winters, considering getting a lighter fur coat. Something that you can wear year-round!

Allergies
Are you prone to allergies? Particularly when it comes to fur? If you do experience allergy issues, you should speak with the store you are going to purchase fur at, and consider that carefully when making your decision. Purchasing a fur coat you can’t wear would be quite the disappointment. Make sure you are hyper-aware of your allergies while you start shopping for the perfect fur coat.
