Trend Report: Birds of a Feather
It's no secret—feathers are this fall’s must have trend. Don’t worry, boas won’t be making a comeback anytime soon. Instead think chic clothing and accessories with an airy, ethereal feel. Jason Wu, Ralph Lauren, Diane Von Furstenberg, Tory Burch—you name a designer, and he or she probably sent some pretty fabulous plumes flying down the runway at the most recent fashion week.
Don't fear any sort of “Big Bird” effect. Feathers are used sparingly to add a smidge of whimsy edge to your look when the weather begins to cool off. Need some convincing that feathers are for you? Just take a gander at this to-fly-for pair of Manolo Blahniks (above) available at Neiman Marcus for $825.
Will you be wearing feathers this fall? Let us know how you'll be accessorizing avian-style in the comments!

Victoria Robinette reclaimed her Charlotte roots three years ago, when she returned from journalism school in Chapel Hill. She’s filled her post-college days hot on the Queen City fashion scene, writing and styling for Charlotte Wedding, Home+Garden, Where Charlotte and Charlotte magazine. Now, she’s taken the reins as style editor of Charlotte. She loves sky high wedges and cozy riding boots, pampering her two Yorkies, finishing sentences with “Seinfeld” lines, and putting everything on hold for Tar Heel basketball.
