measure twice, cut once / aztec camera / fur
Today, I have sewn sequins onto bra cups, and have padded an already-padded bra for maximum boobage. I have burned my fingers with hot glue while reassembling a set of huge ostrich feather fans. I have spray-painted sandals metallic gold (they need at least one more coat). I have knelt behind a woman dressed in fishnets and gold panties and tried not to stick pins in her ass while attaching beaded fringe. It is 10:30 and I am tired.
If anyone has tracks (besides Oblivious) from Aztec Camera's High Land, Hard Rain to share, I would appreciate them ever so much. We've been listening to the vinyl obsessively, and I want to be able to keep up the fixation in the car, as well. Oh, and Roddy Frame (Mr. Aztec Camera) is Scottish. More proof that the Scots do everything perfectly.
I have a bunch of old fur pieces (some with heads!) which came from my grandmother. Many of them are gorgeous and in good condition. I used to wear the fox wraps in the winter, but times have changed and I don't want to have paint thrown on me. I realize I'm in Nashville, not in Seattle (where strangers might feel perfectly justified in lecturing me about wearing fur), but I'm having West Coast fur guilt. So, tell me...

I have a purely-synthetic faux lynx coat that looks and almost feels like the real thing. I love that coat. I carried the tag around in my pocket for a long time, because it said that it was a fake fur on it and I wanted to be able to prove the coat's lack of authenticity, should anyone ask me about it.

I would have trouble with tortoiseshell - the whole idea really upsets me - but I'm okay with the (old) fur. I have no idea why - it seems quite hypocritical.

However, I'd say that there would be nothing wrong with wearing vintage fur. It's not like you're supporting the fur market by purchasing it, which I think is the main concern. But, wearing any fur is pretty much a statement that you condone it, and that's what people will see. I guess it depends whether or not you want people to have the correct impression of you.

Yet, while I'm debating whether to wear my fur (which, obviously, I want to do, and likely will do), I still am taken aback at seeing people in full-length fur coats - they're perverse, basically, and give me the creeps.
So, I don't know what the correct impression would be, at this point, but I appreciate the opportunity to try to pick it apart ;)

You have such great clothes. You should have a website of your closet with a little Fleeg dress-up doll to play mix-and-match with.
