Personally, I'm a fur lover. Nothing quite feels as lovely as a rabbit fur stole (I'm an animal lover, don't worry. Ethics discussions are for another blog)

But much like a Prada handbag, the real thing is better in quality, look and feel.
Surprisingly, when I asked my aunt in Russia to find me a fur hat for christmas, she said that they don't have them there (in Moscow). Instead they have furry berets. Weird, but it could be the next big thing. See a year from now.
