WWW - Bruins are Friends of Faux

Elevate your winter wardrobe with faux fur- from coats to cardigans, you can rely on these timeless, classic pieces to make a statement for the season. Think Almost Famous, 70s inspired, thrift store treasures; faux fur items might be trending, but each piece is unique in its own right. Fashion-forward as ever, Bruins are already placing their own spins on the latest silhouette.

This faux fur trimmed cardigan is vibrant, experimental, and no exception to the standard of creativity that Bruins uphold to. Not too heavy for our Los Angeles “winter,” these cardigans offer both glamour and comfort in a time when you might feel like you want to lay on the couch but look good while doing it. As a seller of cardigans like these, the sustainable brand House of Sunny claims to have been “inspired by poodles in suburban landscapes”... now who couldn’t be tempted by that?

Polished and sophisticated, a jacket like this is truly a lasting piece. From the rich jewel tone aesthetic to the texture of the faux inner lining- this garment is a dream. Not only were no animals harmed in the making of fashions like these, but your bank account won’t be traumatized either- look no further than your nearest thrift store to strike a bargain. With its vintage appeal, a faux fur jacket is a fail-safe way to look effortlessly put together.

Unleash your inner style chameleon in a chic faux fur coat that screams over the top glamour. Although it can be said that clothing largely doesn’t matter that much in this pandemic, coats certainly do. In a time when our limited socialization exclusively occurs outdoors (even if it's just going on your daily covid walk), the chance to make a statement is in your outerwear. Make your style inimitable with a faux fur coat- even if just to protect from the slight Los Angeles chill. 


An increasing number of consumers are denouncing real fur with the realization of its moral and environmental cost. By shopping faux instead, one can feel blissfully guilt-free while experimenting with ethical and luxurious designs. It feels lighter on the body and on the heart.
