fur has mesmerised women for decades.  fashions come and go, but furs always remain.  there is something incredibly girly about the movement alone and then the way the hairs immediately stand when an icy chilly breezes by is fantastically romantic.  fur continues to make a statement this season, as illustrated by the above runway looks and so chicly translated to "the street" by the sartorialist's (my favourite blog of all time!!) subjects.  wear it fluffy and hip length with silky nothingness underneath.  kate moss has been wearing hers like this for years.
