There's something undeniably bold about wearing a big faux-fur vest—it either says, "I'm a fashion person," or, when paired with bell bottoms, "I'm in a throwback '70s easy rock band" or, more likely, "I'm Rachel Zoe." Whatever message you're looking to telegraph, there are tons of animal-friendly options out there, from pretty and patterned to cropped to classic to majorly oversize. As a layering piece, they fit over pretty much anything from a sweater to a coat and can make jeans look really fancy. After the jump, shop our favorites ringing in for under $40 to more than a grand.
