Sketchy on the outside, but vintage treasures on the inside! |
Sound easy right?
Not quite.
First of all, despite that fur is a big trend this cold-weather season, finding that one piece that flatters your unique personal shape can be harder than finding the perfect pair of skinny jeans. Some are too fluffy, some shed a whole animal on you, and others just leave you looking like poor roadkill.
An unexpected solution presented itself one day when my friend and I wanted to hit up New York Vintage (as featured by Rachel Zoe) for some unique finds. Well, apparently New York Vintage is closed on Sundays, but across the way was a vintage garage - open to all! Prada Mary Janes, vintage layered pearls, 70's DVF wrap dresses, were all around us but I was consumed with one thought: I can get my fur here - let the hunting begin!
Let's fast-forward two hours later and I'm holding a rabbit-fur jacket (circa 1970s) and a 1940s caplet - I mean everyone needs at least one cape in their closet right?
Vintage heaven. |
As fabulous as this teeny baby fur jacket was, it just wasn't for me. |
Oh fur, why art thou so difficult to find? |
