The fine and feathered
Fall's time for feathers-the rich, elegant use of feathers. Not the tacky stagette boa, not the Dynasty dripping-feather picture hat, but graceful plumes as adornments.
Worn as earrings, they're light and elegant, especially in bolder pieces.

At a recent wedding, several guests wore feather hair ornaments instead of hats.
