It was my grandmother's fabulous vintage party dresses - which my aunt is currently holding hostage - that ignited my love for retro style. On Christmas Eve of 2006, a DVD of reformatted 40's film footage found its way onto my family's TV. I got to witness my grandparents dance the night away on New Years Eve in 1943! At the end of their evening, just before my grandma left on the arm of my grandfather, she tossed on a fantastic fur collar coat. When I saw the beautiful, double-breasted, inky black beauty featured here, I recognized all the elegance of that gorgeous garment from the 40's. This opulent piece of outerwear is perfect for the modern glamour girl, featuring a faux fur, vegan-friendly collar, along with princess seaming to skim the figure and darling bows to adorn the front pockets. I can't wait to wear this on my next big night out over a dazzling dress, bright tights, and lace up booties. A pair of lacy gloves and a haute little hat will be the finishing touch. This stunningly sultry piece will lend any ensemble the appeal of a vintage vixen. It's one piece that I just can't help but adore. Maybe it runs in the family. -Natalie, Fashion Writer
