I may not be a vegetarian but when it comes down to animal cruelty and the welfare of animals I can't stand seeing fur coats when I have seen the horror stories about it from animal welfare groups and sites .
It would be different if one had an animal in the farm and killed it for it's meat for cooking and the used all it's resources like fur and skin for a carpet , coat , etc , but that is not what happens to these innocent creatures .
Take a look at Stella McCartney , she is a vegetarian designer who has fur free fashion . She may not be my favorite designer but she stands by her ethics and does not hurt an animal just for the sake of fashion and trends .
It is people like Anna Wintour and many others in the fashion and entertainment industry who choose to support wearing fur and advertise it . Also , I am not judging these people just feel the choice they are making by sporting fur is wrong to me .

For myself I will not buy anything with fur anymore no matter how cute or nice it may look , no makeup brushes , chinese accessories with fur , clothing , paint brushes , etc. I may wear leather shoes but I don't wear fur .
They must be cruelty free if they do have fur and certified that they are . Smashbox supposedly has makeup brushes which are cruelty free which is what one Smashbox makeup artist told me once . 100 Percent Pure is entirely cruelty free and so much more ..
I love etsy.com for their handmade clothing , makeup , and accessories too .

I am against wearing real fur, as well. Though I will wear faux fur; the real stuff will never appeal to me. :)
Hi Cafe Fashionista ,
Yeah I thought about wearing faux fur in the beginning but now I feel I can't wear synthetic fur since it's mainly made out of plastic so I would just rather wear natural fabrics like cottons , silk , etc. if I can if not I go with what I have . :) I appreciate your comments ! Thanks
Right on, sister! I draw the line at fur...I am too much of an animal lover not to!!! Happy Friday! xo Cat
