Attribute

I love the look of leather: it’s tough, sexy, the ultimate in cool girl attire but the guilt I feel wearing the real thing is overwhelming! The quality of vegan leather today is so amazing that there really is no need to sacrifice a living being to look chic. I know what you’re thinking “aren’t those real leather shoes on your feet and tote in your hand?” Yes they are real leather and I can’t excuse it but I am doing my best; I haven’t eaten meat in 20 years, I opt for faux leather when I can and absolutely refuse to wear real fur… it’s kind of like environmentalism: I try to recycle everything I can, walk whenever possible and fill my yard with drought tolerant plants but inevitably we leave our carbon footprint somewhere…baby steps do lead somewhere, thanks for dropping by!
