My sister lives in DE and has a full-length black mink. She wears it every day in the winter.

Henig Furs :: - $5,999.00

None of the above, I would prefer to put my money toward something practical and useful but in all honesty I have never been a fur fan and I don't even like the faux fur trim on the hood of winter coats.

Fur is beautiful on the animal it grows naturally on. Humans wearing fur all appear ugly to me because of the disgustingly cruel aspects of the fur trade...it's hard to see beauty when the wearer has such a disregard for the ugliness of its source.

You are correct. Esp when temps drop below about 40f out come the furs in NYC and Chicago. And just just among the elderly and "russians".

Personally I wouldn't wear a fur coat if I was a woman. I don't even own any leather products, anymore, although I eat meat so I can't really judge.
