The holidays are winding down in the Nick and Lenora household. The Christmas tree and decorations have been packed away, our gifts have all been tucked away in their new homes, and we are preparing to ring in new year with close friends chez nous.
Christmas was wonderful. I was spoiled, and I am grateful for not only the material things I received, but the time I was able to spend with family and friends.
The weather in New Brunswick has been very odd and non-typical of the season. By now, we are usually buried by snow- but looking outside, not a single flake remains from our Christmas Day snow shower. No snow, a balmy 8 degrees one day, and minus 18 the next. Mother Nature is undoubtedly pissed at someone!
Today is one of those bitterly cold days- and I bundled up accordingly.
One of the very few reasons I look forward to winter is that I can break out my vintage fur. Now, don't get me started on *new* fur- I am very much against it. However , being that I am the second, third or possibly even fourth owner of my fur, I feel ethically appeased. I also feel I am honoring the animal many decades past it's natural lifespan, anyway. So, PETA, you can kiss my fat ass.
As usual my entire outfit was purchased from antique shops, thrift shops, and flea markets and estate sales. That particular brown felted hat was part of a lot I scored from an estate sale last month.
Well bunnies, I must run, I have a hot date with an old friend who is only in town for a brief time! I wish you all a very happy New Year- may 2012 bring you all much love, adventure, beauty and more!
