Fur Vest Outfits. Fur in any form is nothing new to the wintry weather-wear world. (Whew! Try saying that three times fast, we dare you.) It hails back to the days of Daniel Boone, Old Mountain Phelps, and, you know, the Vikings. In Laura Ingalls’ time, it was a common bargaining tool used for trading supplies. Nowadays, fur remains an important addition to any winter outfit that is in need of layers and/or warmth.
While we tend to associate the wearing of fur with diamond-dripping ladies in floor-length evening gowns, it’s also a symbol of fashionable femininity for any gal who loves a furry coat or a snuggly muffler. Whether you invest in the real thing or you head down the faux-fur-road, the choice is entirely up to you. Options abound and if you can dream of it, it probably exists somewhere. In today’s article, we are going to be looking at the fur vest, specifically, and the different ways you can style it. We’ll also show you 18 outfits you can put together using a fur vest as the pièce de résistance. Have a look and enjoy!
How to Style Fur Vests this Winter
Before looking at our outfits, we have some quick tips about wearing fur vests and things to keep in mind, as well as a couple of go-to styling tricks:
- Layer your fur vest with scarves, hats, gloves, and tights for extra warmth, saving you from having to ditch the vest for a coat.
- Try different versions of fur vests until you find one you love. Whether you like a creamy white fur or a shaggy brown vest, there’s something for everyone.
- Try out different lengths of a vest. A knee-length vest is a thing, and Kendall Jenner modeled one that still gives us major style envy. (See outfit #12 below.)
- Try unlikely pairings like pantsuits or leather leggings. Whether you need a date night look or a party outfit, you can find it all in our selected outfits.
↓ 18. Over Turtleneck Dress
Who doesn’t love a gorgeously soft turtleneck dress? We love that this deep charcoal gray features a glamorous slit up the side and falls just below the knees, making this a daringly conservative number you’ll love wearing to dinner dates, parties, and family get-togethers. Add a plush white fur vest and style with booties to tie this lovely ensemble together.

↓ 17. Stylish Winter Outfit (Browns and Neutrals)
For our second look, we have a lovely brown-and-neutral based outfit that is perfect for warm winter days or very chilly autumn days. It’s stylish but understated and can be dressed up or down according to the occasion. Start with a sleek pair of mid-rise skinny jeans (black is chic) and pair it with a taupe or beige-colored long-sleeved top. For your accessories, lean into those brown tones. Gold accent jewelry works really well with brown and neutral tones so bear that in mind. For footwear, knee-high boots are always a great option, especially for snow! Last but not least, add your fur vest. We like that this one is collared, adding that extra bit of warmth around the neck that is always so welcome on a freezing cold day.
↓ 16. Cocktail Party Outfit for Cold Weather
Despite bleak weather conditions, throwing together a party look with a fur vest is a pretty easy thing to do. As long as you are indoors and spend as little time as possible standing around in the chilly outdoors, a cocktail dress can totally be an option for your next party. (We do recommend some form of tights or stockings, though! Pantyhose, at the very least!) Opt for a bright color to give yourself a little mood boost. Pair it with a neutral-colored fur vest and some strappy metallic stilettos or pumps. You should also check out these Cocktail Party Outfits.
↓ 15. How to Style a Fur Vest for Plus-Size Ladies
We love this quick and simple go-to outfit that makes great use of a gray fur vest with black undertones. You can wear an outfit like this to a casual party scene, a dinner with friends, or even running errands if you like to rock a heel for that kind of thing. Pop on a black tee and pair it up with your favorite pair of jeans. (We love these skinnies folded at the ankle. Super chic!) Last but not least, bust out a cute open-toed heel to tie the whole look together. A swipe of red lipstick and some cute fashion glasses are the icing on the cake.
↓ 14. Country Girl Charm
If you love some southern country charm, this is the look for you! Bring your love of plaid and cowboy boots to the big city with an outfit you will love rocking over and over again. From the cowboy boots to the skinny jeans to the beautiful plaid and flannel shirt tucked in (or kept out), this outfit is a sweet little thing you can don for pretty much any event, from casual parties with friends to dates at the movie theater. Add a beige or light-colored fur vest to tie it all together and stay cozy warm.
↓ 13. Stylish Fall Outfit with Fur Vest
We adore this cute and refreshing get-up, perfect for lunch dates, business meetings, walks in the park, and trips to the theater. Bring some cool tones into the traditionally warm-toned fall by opting for a cool mint blue turtleneck sweater and some pale suede booties. Ripped skinnies rolled at the hem bring some casual feels to the look, but it is kept polished by the light-colored vest, long pendant necklace, and oversized bag. Accessorize with some big ol’ sunnies and style your hair in long, loose waves. Don’t forget a swipe of bold lipstick to tie it all together! (Brownie points if you can score a cute white puppie to complete the look!)

Gosh, there’s just something about pale fur and mulberry lips that make you think of bubbling champagne and glinting light off chinaware. For a party look that whispers back to jazzy, bluesy nightclubs and wedding parties on Ibiza coasts, try this one out for size. Start with a white long-sleeved top and pale grayish vest. Your favorite jeans and a pair of soft brown over-the-knee boots provide the lower half of this charming look. Tie the whole thing together with some berry-red lipstick and a gold chain necklace and get ready to hit the dance floor. (Alternately, this makes for a dazzling date night look. Your call.)
