When you think of real fur accessories, the first image that comes to mind is probably a gorgeous coat in white, grey or brown, enveloping an evening dress or dapper suit. However, fur headwear is a classical choice, as well as a popular one. With fall edging around the corner, this type of fur accessory is also ideal for keeping warm as the weather grows chillier. Here is our official guide to incorporating fur headwear into your wardrobe.

If You’re A First Time Buyer…

If this is your very first piece of real fur, there are a few important things for you to know before you splurge. Buying real fur accessories is very different from any other form of clothes shopping. You want it to be of the best quality possible, so it will remain wearable for years to come! Even if this isn’t necessarily your first time buying fur, these tips should help you all the same in terms of making the smartest possible buying decision.

• Do your research. It’s easier than you think to run across a scam. By doing a bit of Googling, you ensure you enter your buying experience with as much knowledge as possible. This will allow you to know what to look for, as well as which brands and stores to trust in terms of high quality products.

• Is It Real? For ethical reasons, many stores sell faux fur in place of the real thing. While your research will generally tip you off as to which brands to trust as far as getting real fur accessories, it never hurts to test out a hat you really like on your own. Real fur headwear will have backing made of leather, and should feel plush against your fingers.

What Style Do You Want?

When it comes to how to accessorize with real fur, there are countless styles for you to choose from—headwear included! Here are some of the best styles for this fall and winter:

• Ear muffs are a less common choice, but just as stylish as any other! They’re one of the easiest pieces of fur apparel to add to any outfit, as they come in a wide variety of colors and fur types and will create a more subtle touch to your ensemble.

• Headbands are another less common choice, but are great for adding a hint of elegance and/or charm to a feminine outfit. Much like ear muffs, you will be hardpressed to find a headband that won’t fit you. Best of all, this particular type of fur accessory is one of the most affordable and comes in multiple styles.

• When it comes to fur headwear, hats are what everyone thinks of first and foremost. The good news is you have many more options to choose from than the typical Davy Crockett raccoon hat! You can also find sheepskin hats and many other varieties, all of which are sure to look amazing and help you to stay toasty during even the coldest of days.
