Feathers, feathers everywhere! Normally, I would give push-back to this trend. However, I love the way feathers are coming out this fall. There is an elegance, and a sense of haute couture about them this season. They’re found in rich browns and deep greens, paired with tweeds and sensational silk. They add texture and depth to even the simplest black dress, making you more intriguing. So, are you going to stick a feather in your cap? Or do you think this trend is a few feathers short of a whole duck?

      I think feathers are so interesting and can really add some style and intrigue to an outfit…or go deliciously awry, of course!

      I enjoy feathers on others but they are not my style. I prefer to keep things simple and I have allergies :-)
