For many people, shawls were considered a winter necessity to shield from the cold weather. They were something your mother forced you to wear, and you likely did not consider them fashionable.

If you have an outfit you love that leaves you feeling chilly, you can toss a fur shawl, such as the Women’s Knit Shawl with Raccoon Trim, over your shoulders. You do not have to wrap it around you; simply drape it on your shoulders and pin the top together for a beautiful look. This gives you the warmth you need with the sophistication you desire. It is not the ordinary shawl your grandma would knit for you but is one that is fashionable and stylish, especially with the fur trim. Think about wearing it over dresses that are strapless or have skinny straps to your next formal occasion or wear it to the office that is always a little too chilly for you and don’t compromise your style.
Dress It Up
If you are looking for the perfect way to wear fur shawls that is also dressy, take the same shawl you wear with your dresses and drape it over your shoulders. Instead of fastening it at the top and wearing it almost like a sweater, take the bottom of the shawl and tuck it underneath the material in the back or you can even tie it in the back to make it lie more like a shrug than a shawl.
Wrap It Up
For another variation on how to wear a shawl, you can turn it into a wrap with a few simple steps. Simply wrap both ends around the opposite side of you and tie or tuck them into the back of the shawl. This gives you the illusion of a wrap and even more uses for your shawl.

If you have always loved the style but are afraid of being considered unfashionable, turn to the fashionable fur shawls that can be worn a variety of ways to truly spruce up your wardrobe.
