Marching to the beat of her own drum and embodying the characteristics of a true fashion chameleon, Rihanna makes and breaks her own fashion rules with each wardrobe change! We love her youthful and fearless fashion spirit. She is one celebrity that truly has fun with fashion; and fur seems to be the singer’s go-to choice when she wants to set tongues wagging. For this, and so many other reasons, her consistent trend of bucking, and setting, fashion trends left us wanting to see more for this divine diva.

What can we say about Mrs. Kardashian-West that hasn’t been said? Love her or hate her and personal feelings about her rise to fame aside (or conduct once she has gotten there), Kim Kardashian displays her love of luxe fashion and has gotten millions of her admirers to buy into it too. What we would lovingly call a label junkie (it takes one to know one) for sure, Kim carefully curates her looks based on her knack for accentuating her best assets. She has skillfully learned that adding a well-placed touch of fur to her look can add a classic, refined and timeless touch to her wardrobe selections. Oh, and we love that she is getting her little one, North West, hooked on fur fashion too! See for yourself.
