After some of your reactions to the deconstructed classics post, I put up earlier this week I was a little leery about sharing today’s post on feathers because this is one trend that some of you might think is “for the birds”… But before you fly the coop, take a look at how these feathers can lift your style.
1. FEATHERS ADD TEXTURE AND INTERESTWithout the hemline trim, this faux feather trim long vest would be pretty plain and boring. This bit of feather detailing around the bottom makes all the difference in taking this piece from average to awesome! |  |
2. FEATHERS MAKE GREAT ACCESSORIESSometimes the best way to play a trend is in small doses that carry a big impact. This black and teal canvas feather pendant necklace is a striking piece that would look stunning with an open collar shirt or blouse. Just imagine what it can do for your white cotton button-up. |  |
3. FEATHERS ADD DRAMAExotic feathers turn very conservative shoes into dramatic feather flat smoking slippers.

4. FEATHERS = GLAMOURNext time you’re invited to a special event, instead of running out and searching for that elusive ‘perfect dress’, think about adding a piece like this feather shrug to your trusty Little Black Dress instead. Feathers add flare and a strong dose of glamour to everything you wear them with. |  |
5. FEATHERS ARE SUBTLY SEXYBecause of their fine and fuzzy texture, feathers make the things they touch seem soft and sexy. These feather block heel sandals are a perfect example. Imagine what they would do for a pair of skinny jeans and a silky blouse? Vavava-Voom!

6. FEATHERS ADD FUNA winter hat is pretty basic, but adding a feather pompom to this cable knit beanie instantly makes it (and you) fun. |  |
7. FEATHERS ARE FEMININEAccessories say a lot about the wearer and what better way to make a statement than with these very feminine feather statement earrings. The pattern, texture, and color are gorgeous and girly. They’re a perfect way to bring a playful touch to any outfit. |  |
8. FEATHERS CREATE INSTANT CHICThis feather bolero jacket is that rare bird that makes anything you wear it with instantly and incredibly chic. Available in pink, charcoal and black, this jacket will make anything – from jeans and a t-shirt to a little black dress – seem instantly sophisticated. |  |
9. FEATHERS CONJURE UP RETRO GLAMOUROld-school Hollywood glamour and charm comes to mind when I look at these feathered slide sandals. I can almost picture Zsa Zsa Gabor wearing these while lounging on a chaise and sipping a martini! |  |
What do you think? Are feathers for you or are they for the birds?

I love the glamour quotient that feathers add.! I tried on earrings today that had to come home with me. They’re sassy in an earthy sort of way. Great options here Deborah! Thanks
I say don’t shoot the messenger. I love that you keep us up to date with trends. I still want to know what’s “happening” even if I choose to pass on it myself. I think the feathers are sexy and playful. I like the Steve Madden shoes.
Thank you Deborah!
I can get on board with some feathers. I love the necklace and the beanie hat! Small quantities would work best for me. Those heels make me think of the old “house shoes” from Green Acres and Bewitched or shows in that era. Love it!
Hi Lisa,
I think you hit the nail on the head. You just need a little to make a big impact. Aren’t those heels cute! Yes, very 60’s, you’re right. What is old is new again! Glad you commented!
My dog loves feathers, so that would spell the end of any feathers in my wardrobe.
