We spotted Heather Okimoto, editor in chief and creative director of Denver Style Magazine, at Larimer Square's Winter Fashion Show at Edge Lounge wearing a faux-fur vest. Brandi Shigley was wearing a Lykafur jacket when we spotted her near her office in the Golden Triangle. "This ankle-long Lykafur resembles mink," she says. "I got this jacket because it's a family heirloom from my parents, which they got from our ninety-year-old neighbor. It feels like I'm wrapped up in a bear. For me, it's practical. I wear this fur because it's warm and comfortable." Keep reading for more fur -- faux and real. We spotted sound engineer Mike Sperandeo at Auraria wearing a black faux-fur scarf. "If I can afford real fur, I would wear it," Sperandeo says. "I like faux-fur because it adds another texture to an outfit. Most clothes are very two-dimensional and flat. Fur can break up the outfit. I love animals, so if I were to wear an animal it would be ritualistic and I would hope to have known the animal and thank it for its death." You can rock fur in any neutral color: White, black, light and dark brown are all good choices. You can buy real fur at the Overland store on Larimer and 16th streets.Regardless if you wear real fur or faux-fur, Denver, always stay on trend.
