Lori Majewski's latest Cape Farewell update from an arctic land far far away:

It's the middle of the night in the U.S., but here in Iceland -- our stopover en route to the High Arctic -- singer Vanessa Carlton is wondering aloud what to do with the fur stole a friend lent her to take on the trip.

A former vegan and animal lover, she wrinkles her brow at the idea of donning skin.

But as a lover of vintage, she could be forgiven by some eco-fashionistas.

What do YOU think? Is it okay to wear fur to keep warm? As a fashion statement? Or not at all? Comment after the jump!
