The Holiday season has snuck up on us once again and it is full of opportunities to pull out your shiniest and dressier attire-- from sequins, jewel encrusted detail and what other than feathers!
The Fall 2013 collections were full of the embellishment on the runways at shows like Gucci, Dries Van Noten and Alexander McQueen. Don't shy away from the fancy detail thinking it will only work on a runway. Retailers like Bebe, Kate Spade and Club Monaco have offered their own versions, whether it be detail on a purse/clutch, skirts/dresses, shoes and accessories.
So how do you work a trend like this into your wardrobe?
You should keep this fluttery touch for a special occasion (upcoming holiday parties) or during cocktail hours rather than a daytime look. Underdress a feathered peplum top with black leather skinnies or a feathered skirt with a knit top. Or don't. Just don't don feather from head to toe and expect to look like Beyonce.
Take a look at some great feather finds-

Feather garments will cost a little bit more than a little black dress, but, it is a piece you or anyone will never forget and it is the holidays. Give yourself a reason to splurge a little.
Challenge yourself this season and add some feather.
