December 21 marks the first official day of winter, so what better way to celebrate the cold weather season than by wrapping yourself up in a fabulous faux fur coat? Apart from being extremely cozy, faux fur coats are effortlessly elegant. However, if you need any further evidence (and perhaps some styling guidance), we have the street style set to thank for the ultimate outfit inspiration. Just last week, fashion darling Hailey Bieber stepped out in a floor-grazing faux fur that caused quite the sartorial stir. She styled the maxi atop a slinky Saint Laurent mini dress, sheer tights, and additional Saint Laurent accessories.

According to these stylish street stylers, a faux fur coat should be the centerpiece of your winter wardrobe, but that doesn’t mean that the other pieces of your outfit can’t shine. For example, Khaite’s ‘Ada’ coat is the perfect counterpart to a pair of tailored trousers from The Row and an easy white T-shirt from Everlane. Statement accessories like Celine Eyewear or a Zara moon bag are also not to be ignored. From By Malene Birger, the ‘Kavela’ faux fur coat is a twist on the classics, featuring a high neck and exposed paneling. Like this street styler, pair yours over a timeless turtleneck, pleated pants from The Frankie Shop, and pointed-toe boots from Totême. If your style leans more feminine, an Apparis coat worn over a floral frock from Dôen is a sweet styling combination. And because a Max Mara teddy coat is always top on our winter shopping list, take a styling cue from this chic fashion insider and wear yours atop a crisp striped button-up from Anine Bing and a denim maxi skirt from Reformation. 

This winter and beyond, here are 10 street-style approved ways to wear your new favorite faux fur coats and jackets. Happy shopping!
