wishlist wednesday!

with the weather getting cold, i've been thinking about ways slightly more attractive (i think, hope) than grandpa sweaters and ugg boots, or maybe i'm just channeling my inner 40's vixen, i'm not sure. anyway, i love a good grandpa sweater, but in my quest to stop dressing so much like a casual tomboy, i'm trying to think outside the oversized clothes box. this is what i've been wanting to keep me warm lately...

back at the beginning of the year, i spent a day going to a few antique stores with my dad, stepmom and grandma. one of the stores we visited had two believable-looking faux fur collars for just $5 each, and they were medium to large size. like a complete idiot, i stare at them forever, but left empty-handed. i've been thinking about them ever since, which i'm sure means i should've gotten them. maybe i'll find another in my searches, or maybe i'll just get one online, because it's gotten COLD! on a related note, i know that everyone has different feelings about fur. i personally would never buy anything new made from real fur (and i still feel guilty for buying that rabbit's foot when i was a kid), but i even feel weird about vintage fur. i'm afraid that each time i wore a vintage fur collar, i'd still feel sad and guilty thinking about the animal that was drowned to make the collar. what do you think?

if you have a wish list to share, leave me a link in the comments section so i can see!
