I like a good bargain, but for only $300 more I too would’ve preferred new. I want a red but I want it red all over, or crystal but I don’t want it to be trimmed in white tuxedo style.

Yes me too, I couldn't find one in decent shape so I just went with the white trim new one and called it a day.
Sure enough today I get an in stock notice from TRR, all red fox, long, thick, pre-owned but looked good, for 549! I thought about it for a second but let it go. It sold about an hour later :shocked:

Thank you, NLOV. Yes, it's been cold here today & will be in the high teens tomorrow. We're getting snow flurries at the moment.& it's just a dusting. If it continues all night, we'll have some accumulation. It's definitely fur weather. I want to find a hat to go with my shadow fox wrap.....I'm thinking a silvery grey color. And I'm currently looking at some Silver fox hats since I plan to get a Silver fox coat.

Do you happen to have a pic?
See I like the white collar for you, I think it fits your style, you dress classy but funky. You’re not afraid to play around with color blocking and patterns. I need all red because I play it much safer!

You’re welcome! I am looking for crystal fox, red fox, blue fox etc. I just want it full length, I know you’re looking for a stroller.

It started raining then sleeting here last night and we’ve had flurries all day. Unfortunately, with the temperature steadily dropping the weather in now inclement, our bridges and over passes are covered in white ice, our grounds are frozen, cars and houses covered, the roads have black ice, out schools have all closed. We in Texas don’t know what to do with all this.

And to think I tone it down sometimes :lol:
I am pretty daring when it comes to fashion. I think the neighborhood is used to me by now lol
Sure, I found the pic, and I rechecked the price it was 595. Still a good deal. Size was XL.

Yes, I'm looking for a stroller or 3/4 length coat but I think I will be getting the long length when I get a mink. I thought I would get the stroller length at first but I really like the look of the long mink coats.
I've been going through my closet & I need to get something in the brown shades. LOL

Our schools & govt offices are closed tomorrow. A lot will depend on the conditions of the roads. It's not going reach 30 degrees tomorrow so if anything melts, it's just going to freeze. It's very hilly where our house is but I have a 4 wheel drive to get out if I need to.

As you know, I previously had the true full length mink (ankle length) and my current mink is mid calf length and I prefer that length. I think it goes casual to dressy better. I think I may prefer full length in any and all furs I buy but we’ll see!
My main car is a Mercedes SUV, while pretty it’s not really made for rough conditions imo. Last year when we flooded DH bought me a Jeep and that thing goes through high water, in ditches, over curbs with no damage!!! But with that said I’m not used to driving in snowy conditions!!!

The length of your mink is the long length I would be looking for. How many inches long is your coat? I'm tall but I don't want one that comes to my ankles. I worry about wear & damage to the fur at the hem. I think mid calf length is the longest I want to go.

You can see my regular driver in my avatar. Definitely not for driving on snow or ice. Our Jeep is set up for off roading. It's lifted & has terrain tires so I can go pretty much anywhere. I can drive in snowy, icy conditions but I prefer not to unless it's an emergency. Stay warm & safe.

Ok, so we’re kind of on the same page length wise. If I recall correctly, my coat is 43” from collar to hem. The old one was 50”, too long for me at 5’3 plus I feel like the straight cut inhibited my stride.

Jeeps are fun, we go mudding and off roading sometimes. I think I’m just afraid to drive in those types of conditions because I’ve never had to do it so I don’t know what to expect. It may be time to learn! You be careful and stay safe as well!!!

It was cold this morning when I left to run errands for DH while he is out of town so I wore this faux suede/fur vest with leggings & boots, topped off with my black fox hat & cashmere wrap. I was nice & toasty. I haven't been able to wear this vest for a couple of years, so the weight is coming off slowly. We're under a winter advisory of temps in the teens with rain or possible snow & wind chill that make it feel like zero degrees. So it will be fur weather for the next few days!!
