Beat the heat with this unexpected layer

Your faux fur overcoat might be a bit too hefty for bikinis and Birkenstocks, but that doesn't mean you should banish the luxe layer from your summer wardrobe.

Confused? Don't be. Although it feels counterintuitive to drape yourself in faux fur like Gigi Hadid, the supermodel has the right idea. But instead of grabbing your furry jacket, think of the fluffy fabric merely as an accessory this season. That's right—we're talking about slides, chain-link bags, clutches and even nails (if the occasion calls for it). 

This way, the fuzzy texture will simply just add a playful punch to your light, breezy, warm-weather wardrobe.
