Short fur coats: models and what to wear
Features and benefits
In the conditions of the Russian frosts, a fur coat made of natural fur is always relevant. The variety of models is great now: there are both long and short versions; both monophonic, and with prints; various styles. First of all, such products are distinguished according to the fur from which they are made. When choosing between a short and long version of a fur coat, it is necessary to take into account the peculiarities of the type of figure, lifestyle, and the age of the hostess.
The main advantage of the model of fur, reaching to the ankles, is the fact that it perfectly warms the whole body in the cold and adds status to the owner. Cons - heavy weight of the product, quickly get dirty and wet hem, completely uncomfortable to wear in public transport, adds age. In addition, with such a fur coat it is necessary to wear a high heel, which is not always convenient. Therefore, style experts advise to abandon such a long version of the product and limit the fur coat to the knee length or slightly lower. This product will last much longer, protecting the hostess back from blowing.
Compared to the long version, a short fur coat ending in thighs or higher will not provide the owner with sufficient warmth for long winter walks in the park.
But such a product is ideal for women who have their own car: a short fur coat does not interfere with pedaling and does not restrain movement. In addition, auto-lady does not face the problem of abrasion of fur from the constant sitting behind the wheel.
As a rule, short models are a youth option, as older women prefer weatherization, and, therefore, are available in a large number of different styles, colors and designs. Short fur coats emphasize the elegance of the hostess, so she is often covered when going to ceremonial events.
Another indisputable advantage of a short fur product is the price, which, naturally, is much lower than that of a long model. And if the winter comes out warm, then in a short fur coat you can go through the whole season - in the long one it will be too hot.
It should be noted that such a length of the product should be avoided by the owners of excess weight, or choose fur with short fibers, so as not to add additional volume on top. For the same reason, similar fur coats are contraindicated for women with an “inverted triangle” type.
Popular models and styles

Secondly, it is necessary to decide for what purpose a fur coat is bought. If the owner will be autolady, then fur with short hairs will be more suitable for her, a light version to the waist, or a style that is named after her, with sleeves in. If a fur coat is bought for active walks, then it is better to choose a model to the hips, to cover your back. Again, additional product parameters are selected from the acquisition target: with or without a hood, with or without a collar.
Thirdly, it is necessary to check the quality of sewing fur coats: the fur should not contain bald spots, there should be no creases and protruding threads. In addition, you should pay attention to the color and brilliance of the product. And remember, if the manufacturer is confident in himself, then he does not sew the lining to the end, so that buyers can be convinced of the quality of his work on the manufacture of fur.
Fourthly, it is impossible not to take into account the peculiarities of the figure when choosing a short fur coat. If you have lush volumes in the bust area and narrow hips, then emphasize your waist with a belt - the surrounding people will appreciate it. For skinny girls, the fitted coat is the ideal option.
In general, try to choose a model with a fairly loose fit: in the shoulders and chest, it should not reap, otherwise you will not be able to wear a warming clothing under the fur coat. And of course, you can give universal advice: focus on the overall convenience of wearing the product.
What to wear
Short fur coats are perfectly combined with trousers, pipes, leggings and tight jeans. They can be supplemented with low boots or boots with high heels. But note that the pants, tight to the legs, can only afford thin girls.
Having not the most perfect and even legs, try to combine a fur coat with trousers of length 7/8 of thick fabric. Not the worst version of the lower part of the image - trousers, flared from the hip, but you need to select them universally, starting from the features of the figure.
A skirt made of thick fabric perfectly combines with a short fur coat, which ends just above the knee. The style of this skirt can be varied. The classic version is a pencil skirt and sheath dress.
Clothing is better to choose a monotonous, calm colors. It is not recommended to wear products made of light weightless fabric under a short fur coat, as they add a messy look to the image, and also use active and bright prints.

- Short boots - combined with any fur coat whose length does not end below the knees. Heeled models are preferable: a high stud for those who can stand and move steadily on it, or a stable option for more practical and rational persons.
The material can be any: artificial or genuine leather, suede and others. Color is to choose a universal. Having bought ankle boots of black or saturated brown color, you will definitely not lose.For light-colored fur coats are great ash-gray version of short boots. The main thing is that you feel warm in them.
- Knee-high boots - Another win-win option, more suitable for Avtoledi style fur coats. They can be both with and without heels, if the slender legs of the hostess allow.
- Uggs - about this type of footwear the controversy does not subside: someone says that they disfigure the foot and they should not even be presented with a fur coat others believe that there is nothing shameful in the combination of ugg and fur coat. Which side to choose, decide for yourself. However, comfort and warmth from the original soft boots will not replace anything.
- Boots with laces. A good option for walking in your new fur coat will be its combination with boots with laces: they can be long or short, with or without heels. Such shoes will give your image a bit of mischief. But be sure to pick a warm model.
Accessories
Various scarves will complement the elegant winter look. Currently, the most relevant "LIC" in which you can wrap. Headgear may not be, if there is a hood. In the absence of such a convenient part of the product, it will be necessary to stock up with a knitted beret or a fur hat.
