So, what do you all think about buying fur or animal skins second hand? I have always been staunchly anti-fur, but I was thrown by this bag! Does even a vintage buy show support for a cruel and unnecessary industry, or is it more like buying a piece of history from a time when such issues were unconcerning?
I don't agree with killing to make new items but why let the old ones goto waste? It isn't going to bring them back to life again
I also don't like being told what not to wear by people either.An average day in my life:hello: :eek::mad: :coffee::coffee::coffee::T
