Please donate them to your local Humane Society. The fur bits go to wildlife rehabilitators, who use them to comfort injured and orphaned animals. In Philadelphia, at least, you can bring your donations into Buffalo Exchange, and Buffalo Exchange will forward it for you. Just let them know it's for the Humane Society, and not for resale. And if the Manolo's many many readers would care to mention it, not only La BellaDonna, but the many little animals will be grateful. http://www.hsus.org/press_and_publications/press_releases/spring_cleaning_donate_fur_garments_to_wildlife_in_need.html La BellaDonna, she humbly asks that the Manolo allow her to post this Fashion Don’t:

Such contrasts may look great on the ethereal stick figure of the Anthropologie fantasy catalogue. :sigh: But to break up the line of leg with an inversion of color usually makes one look like they have a bad case of gout. I own far too many patterned hose and tights, half of which have never been worn after seeing their shocking effect on a leg of "real girl" proportions. The worst offender of the Don't to my eyes lately... and there are some that still do this. On a daily basis. Women who wear a lip liner in shades 10 times darker than the fill in lip color.

Either the same color or neutral (your skin tone) are acceptable. But red shoes with navy stockings? Black stockings with lime green shoes? Gag!
