Fur Box

On the Rue de Rosiers where I lived in Paris last year there was a groovy little second hand clothes shop that we'd sometimes peruse. I found a neat corduroy jacket while Raja tried on the furs. To me it looked like a box of roadkill but she somehow managed to look chic!

Very nice Mr Jones. Great to see some colourful stuff again. Crazy how some european shops still stock furs... but hey the picture is really nice. Hope all is good with you.

Indeed, great to see some colourful stuff again,.... but that doesn't mean you have to go for the clashing pink polo shirt immediately ;-)
