I really really really hate fur. I just can't support it on any level. I look at someone as chic as Natalie Portman (a vegan) and it makes the Olsons look like ridiculous monkeys. Aside from the fact that the fur industry is hideous, cruel, and criminal, it's 2011... there's materials that keep you JUST as warm as fur without the unnecessary pain.
I also think fur is tacky. Especially the one's they've got on. I suppose I understand getting a little vintage fur collar, or even jacket (I still don't like the look of it) but this is just going a bit far.
We have to draw lines in the world... some leathers are just as bad, I get that. But most are made from hides that come from cows we eat. We have to be responsible consumers. Otherwise we might as well care less about EVERY problem around us, including genocide, world hunger, and global warming. Speaking out against animal cruelty that occurs in most of the fur industry is in line with being a responsible citizen.
Sorry for the diatribe, but Alexa Chung is 100% more chic for saying no to fur, even if she wears leather.
LOL seriously! it's FUHREEZING here!!! as Rachel would likely say ;) Loving the title: i discovered the RZ project on youtube this weekend and im OBSESSED! omg. lol!
