CAN WE TALK ABOUT FUR ?

My love affair with fur started at a young age. My grandmother bought me my first fur coat when I was about 5 years old. I've loved fur ever since. I think fur can kick a boring outfit up a notch. I'm not talking about full length fur coats, just a little something like a fur collar of scarf even. I've been somewhat good. I've been keeping track of every dollar and paying down some debt. I ventured out to see the President's Day sales about 3 weeks ago. J.Crew (crickets), there was nothing going on in there, so I ventured over to the new shopping center in Westbury, Long Island. I walked into the Bloomingdales outlet, saw nothing. On my way out the door, I saw some fur out of the corner of my eye, could it be ? I found this beautiful Alice + Olivia Durham fur collar cardigan. What's good is that you can use the fur collar on other coats and sweaters.

    1. Ina, its not as expensive as you think. If you can get your hands on a fur collar, you're set. You can attach it to any coat or cardigan you like. I've seen some reasonable ones on Ebay.

    1. I was a little skeptical doing this post at first, because everyone is not into fur for personal reasons. As you can see, I got crickets on this post. LOL. But Thank you for stopping by.

  3. My wife also loves fur, especially coats made of it. It doesn’t matter to her if she’s wearing a designer’s fur coat or not, as long as it makes her comfortable and warm. She has a collection of different types of fur coats. It even made her closet look like a factory of fur. LOL! +Joel Salmon
