What to Wear: When You Get Tired of Pants in Winter
First of all, I really do like your blog a lot and I browse through it at least once a week, uh-ing, ah-ing and agreeing with you on all kinds of topics.
But what about this constantly repeated fur bullshit? Animal cruelty has got nothing to do with fashion!
And as a pescetarian (you claim to be one, right?) do you really think it makes you chic, parading around in skin and fur of dead foxes, cats and rabbits? This is madness.
Thank you for reading, Saskia!
To address your comment, however, first things first: I appreciate your feedback and admire your steadfastness in your beliefs! I am pescetarian for health reasons, and while I (and I’d hope the rest of humanity) cannot stand for animal cruelty, I’m nowhere near perfect enough to say I’ve cut all traces/consumption of animal products from my life. I will always choose faux fur over a real one, but I’ll (sheepishly) admit that I’m not above liking a fur coat purely from a stylistic/aesthetic standpoint. I wear (and love) leather, I eat fish, I don’t do as much research on product research backgrounds as I’d like. I could promise to be better, do better, but for now, I’m not sure what more I can say to remedy your feelings. xx
