Lordy Shock

My gran had a real fox fur stole (as it was called) complete with real fox mush and paws. Probably considered well posh originally but it was basically left as a toy for us grandkids by that time.

Dbro was terrified of it and my cousins used to sneak into his room and tuck it up in his bed. Was great Grin

Eww! Old ladies used to wear real ones to mass when I was little (along with black mantillas Grin). Who the actual fuck thought this up? Are they on the Absinthe at M&S Design? Grin

Sniggers at Spit the Dog and Basil Brush. It truly is a thing of pure hideousness.

It's like they heard that foxes have been popular in prints this year...so they said "Make us a fox scarf!" to their designer and they just...got it SO wrong.
