This season, we've seen faux fur coats pop up in an array of styles, prices and colors everywhere from Sears to Bloomingdales, which makes us here at SodaHead wonder: Do you actually like the look of faux fur coats?
If you're into it, check out our slideshow for some inspiration on how to wear faux fur -- maybe for that New Year's party you're going to in a couple of days? It's definitely a tricky look to pull off, but if you do it well, I think it can look pretty stellar.

Here's a quote:
When investigators went into another animal market in southern China, they were horrified to find dogs and cats being bludgeoned, hanged, bled to death, and strangled with wire nooses so that their fur could be turned into trim and trinkets.
They found cats and dogs languishing in tiny cages, visibly exhausted. Some had been on the road for days, transported in flimsy wire-mesh cages with no food or water.
Twenty cats were forced into a single cage. Because of the cross-country transport in such deplorable conditions, the investigators were able to see dogs and cats with open wounds, dying cats and dogs inside the cages, and dead cats on top of the cages. Some animals were lethargic or frightened, and others were fighting with each other, driven insane from confinement and exposure.
Up to 800 animals are loaded onto each truck, with cages stacked on top of each other. Cages containing live animals are commonly tossed from the tops of the trucks onto the ground 10 feet below, shattering the legs of the animals inside them. Many of t...

Up to 800 animals are loaded onto each truck, with cages stacked on top of each other. Cages containing live animals are commonly tossed from the tops of the trucks onto the ground 10 feet below, shattering the legs of the animals inside them. Many of the animals still had collars on, a sign that they were once someone's beloved companion, stolen to be made into a fur coat.
This fur from China is often deliberately mislabeled as fur from other species and is exported to countries throughout the world to be sold to unsuspecting customers in retail stores. Since China supplies more than half of the finished fur garments imported for sale in the United States and since dog and cat fur is often mislabeled, if you're buying fur, there's no way to tell whose skin you're wearing, including that of a dog or cat.
Don't like either. It promotes buying fur coats in general. Fake or not, some people end up wanting the real ones because the fakes wear out over time. But seeing things like this pisses me off even more when I see people wearing them >.> How do you feel seeing this video? Not everything is Minx and what not :/ Some things may seem fake but they lie more then you know!
What will you do when the end is here....and you have to live off the land..i supose your opinion would change very quickly.
