    I have complained too and unfollowed. For those of you interested:

    China is the world's largest exporter of fur, and undercover investigations repeatedly reveal what the fashion industry won't tell you: foxes, minks, rabbits, and even dogs and cats are mercilessly killed in order to make fur coats, vests, trim on jackets, purses, and other accessories.

    Here is never-before-seen footage of animals being beaten, stomped, genitally electrocuted, and skinned alive on Chinese fur farms, where there are no penalties for this abuse. Link to shocking footage is here be warned it's bad http://features.peta.org/ChineseFurFarms/

    I do not judge anybody on here, I just think we all need to know what is going on. If you don't want to see it DO NOT click the link.

    Not entering this if it is really fur, thanks for posting anyway.
    No you're not a vegetarian if you eat any animal or fish, so do not insult genuine veggies by calling yourself one! :mad:

    Thanks to everyone who posts competitions. You are the stars of the board :T:j:T

    Sorry to bump but just to clear up that it's not faux fur. It's mink and fox as stated on their website here. Not posting this to judge anyone, just thought people might like to know before deciding to enter. :)

    I've just complained to sheerluxe, got a little bit carried away but I've seen videos of animals being killed for fur and I can still not get those images out of my head, and this was years ago :(
    Told them they should change their name from sheerluxe to sheer murder now!!

    Kate Moss is an ugly idiot, I've always hated her, this fur thing just makes me hate her more!

    I couldn't have said this better myself. Totally shocking behaviour!

    If anyone wants a template of a "polite" email, I sent this:

    To Whom it may concern,
    I saw the competition of:

    "SheerLuxe have teamed up with Honey Lulu London to offer one lucky reader the chance to win this delicious Black Mink and Fox Jacket worth £399. A true investment."

    I am horrified that fur is back as a "fashionable" item, especially the day after the EU banned animal testing. Looking at your website, I see a range of beautiful and affordable items, which does not have fur included in the material used to make them.
    I am writing to say, please stop advertising and selling Fur products, especially in this time and age where faux fur is often just as beautiful as the real ones..without the pain, suffering and waste that the fur trade brings to millions of animals.
    Thank you.

    Kind Regards,
    Thank you all for making MSE so wonderful!
