Inspiration


I was checking one of my favorite style blogs The Satorialist and came across this amazing photo (They are all amazing) with these vintage dressed girls. The the gal on the left is the look I most relate to, and I've been on the lookout for the perfect fur coat just like that, I love the color. It's been a little difficult to find a good vintage fur coat because, well, I live near Portland and everyone is anti-fur so the fur coats people inherit from their grandmothers get thrown out. Since Christmas shopping is over (thank you Etsy) maybe I can save up for one this winter and hope I find the perfect coat before the season is out.

Yeah, I've only worn fur collars in Portland and that seems to be ok, but ever since protesters ran the last Furrier out of town a few years ago I havent seen anyone wear more than that, and it seems all the rage to donate old fur coats to get "recycled".

Oh you're a doll, there's another pair of eyes on the lookout!

LOL, sadly I must admit that I have been a fur-protestor. But, in terms of a VINTAGE fur coat, one that's been around, well, can't save that animal can I? So I get it.... Hope you find one!

The photo looks like a film still from a movie I'd want to see if it existed. :)
