Hiya-watha.

Feathers have been making a comeback in a big way. I've been wearing the "fascinator" style for a few years now—I bought my first about six or seven years ago in New Orleans and usually only busted it out for "nights on the town". Now that I have a child, my nights on the town are few and far between! So I was happy when the more day-time feather look started to make an appearance. Not that I've ever been one shy away from wearing night fancies in the day time...but my first feather hairpiece was pretty large. The new fascinators are a little more chic and a little less show girl.



While I still love the look of these, I'm becoming more and more entranced by the Native American feathers I'm seeing popping up. Granted some of these are pretty costumey.....but I really love the idea of a headband or crown of feathers. What do you think??
