Fur and makeup

I was going to write up something about what I keep in my bag..and the ridiculous amount of money I spend of cosmetics.

I was partially inspired by Maria's brilliant blog Lipstick Masala and the great advice she gives ( I only wish she had started writing before I bought all the make up I have). But during one of my excursions today two things steered me off the subject of makeup :

1- I bought more make up, so I could not think critically about it
2- I bumped into a wedding party, in a church in the center of Rome, and saw this:



I am not against fur..but this creeped me out a bit. First of all it was very warm, and definitely not fur whether. Secondly, I am not sure I love seeing the legs (and head) of the poor animal.

What do you think?

i am guilty of being a fur lover. i adore the dr. zhivago era hats- and would love to buy one! but this is just hideous. the head and tail make it look like she's wearing a carcass, nothing elegant about it!

I don't get it. Was this a rug she threw on at the last minute? I rarely see stoles with heads/legs.

It was not cold enough for fur.
