style: oh so faux.

Let’s talk for a minute about wearing real fur.

I don’t do it.

I just can’t bring myself to. The idea of wearing a poor dead animal for the sake of fashion (or even warmth) is just not one that sits well with me. I have ZERO judgment for those of you who might wear real fur. It’s just not my thing.

The good news, though, is that faux fur is in style and I don’t see it going away any time soon. I’m a huge fan of the look of fur (coats, neck warmers, etc.), so I’ve been fully embracing it now that the weather has cooled down.

    I’m confused about how you can’t bring yourself to wear a real dead animal, but you have no problem wearing something that looks like a real dead animal….usually people with an opinion on the matter have a problem with both.
