Cindy Crawford in fur on the cover of Russian Vogue
This morning, whilst waiting for my boss to open the office, I indulged in one of my favourite pass times - vintage window shopping. I say window shopping because if I enter this particular op shop, I know I will leave a good deal of money there. As it is, there is an adorable pair of 50s style heels with a matching handbag that are singing a siren song to my purse. I really need to start leaving my cash at home (and freezing my credit card in a bucket of water, but that's another story).
Anyhoo, on this particular morning, as I was admiring said shoes and bag, something else caught my eye - a vintage fur jacket and matching hat. I was instantly confronted - fur?! I went through the usual 'is it real? No, it can't be - hang on - no! But yes, I think it is! Can it be?' And so then came the question: Is fur accepatable because it's vintage?
