ABC WEDNESDAY "F" is for 'fur'

This snow is a couple of weeks old, and recently the temperatures have been springlike.

You still see fur coats here, the real stuff.

How about where you live?

I almost never wear mine—but have hauled it out a couple of times this frigid winter. (Quite a difference between this woman and vieille dame from yesterday.)

That is a lot of fur.

A good street shot.

Fur coats would be a very rare thing here.

Depending upon where one lives, furs sometimes are essential. I spent some time in Siberia on a school field trip and really envied the people there who wore them. I inherited a fur but am reluctant to wear it because of social attitudes about furs. when our city in Minnesota endured weeks of below zero temperature this season I was glad I had it!

Just read that you have lived 35 years in Serbia ... every time I go back to my country of origin, things have changed, new words are in vogue,and views/opinions have changed (I try to go at least once in 5 years).
At least here in the USA there is now strong opposition to killing animals for fur - so real fur is not anymore the cool thing to do:)

We never see fur anymore. My mother had a beautiful one but it's politically incorrect now.
